You abandoned me
For the greener patch
That lay yonder
Forgetting
You will yearn for me again
From that barren bank
You kicked me aside
And went in search
Of a fine pearl
And now are among cheap beads
Unable to find the treasure
You spurned me
Your own flesh and blood
And sought shelter
With a stranger
Exchanging home for an inn
Blood for water
Go on then
In your pointless folly
It’s yours
The price
Yours
The pain
