It was a simple thing
throwing out the trash
cleaning out reminders
the embers, and the ash
When it fell into my hand
memories, long now forgot

It was a simple thing
throwing out the trash
cleaning out reminders
the embers, and the ash
When it fell into my hand
memories, long now forgot
resurfacing again, to pain
the ring, that I had bought
Take care when remembering
don't linger, on the chaff
the tinniest, and little things
will kick you, in the ***
Like stumbling over a paperclip, that used to hold a picture, long forgotten. :)
