You threw me away like a second hand used shoe human being with a heart

You threw me away like tears that fall from heaven when clouds burst volcanic drenching us all in divinity

But you, you just threw me away

Like a rusted rim rolling down the highway some dusty remnant of past of lives lived moments of existence now lying there thirsty beneath the ever so often searing sun

Like waves that crash endless upon the shore you threw me up there too and I became driftwood floating in uncharted territory

Like trees that shed leaves without emotion or care I fell colorful and vibrant Oh, so utterly alive to the dirt and worms to the dank silt of Earth

And you threw me there

Tossed me like a coin flipped me upside my head to my tail over and over and in your hands I did not land because you

You threw me away

And I landed not bent broken or bruised bur safely within wings of the most holy angels

Because you threw me away

I rose

And you

are left still staring where a coin used to be held lovingly within your palm safe beneath that searing sun the rainclouds and thunder floating endless upon your own waves landing on other shores

And because you threw me away

My dear soul, My sweet loved lover loving -

Because you threw me away

I thank you.
