While passing a trash bin
I spotted your love
crumpled and bleeding
underneath shredded bills

I pulled it out
smoothed it down
read it through

Stained a crying red
it told me the story
of how you have loved
and lost

(a familiar tune)

It had wide margins
and several tear stains
I added some notes
and pain of my own

(I hope you don't mind)

While passing a mailbox
I dropped in your love
folded and healing
on top packaged bills
