Don't cry for me
I am not worth your tears

Do not mourn me
I am not worth your sadness

Don't comfort me
I am not worth your time

I am not worth your affection
I am not worth your care
I am not worth your worry
I am not worth your efforts

I am worth little more than the dirt on your shoes
Which you cast away in disgust

I am worth less than the trash you throw away
Which you hurry to get rid of
So it will not ***** your hands any longer

Pay me no mind
And I will try to give you no trouble

But I am like litter
Out of control
With only few willing to clean me up

I seem so inconsequential
And at times I am
But litter only spreads filth
