a teen age girl
lies curled on the bed
cheek stains w/ tears
eyes colored red

over her stomach
her hands are clasped
w/ realizations
of what just passed

feeling guilty
to be alive
she fights back the thoughts
of suicide

the garbage man
pulls up outside
just like always
right on time

w/out thinking twice
he fills the truck
w/ trash from the bins
and drives to the dump

inside the truck
beneath forgotten toys
is what would have been
her baby boy

never given the chance
to live or to play
he was thrown out w/ the
pieces of yesterday

tears on her face
blood on the follr
all the satins of the life
she doesent want anymore
