Trashed Away

Lies in a landfill memories represented
                                With withered flowers that never reached
                          The recipient hands , the photographs discarded
                       To behind a stage that is preferred to leave in the past 
                 Or toys of grown up children replaced with technologic gadgets.

                             Trash can trucks empties garbage and items
                         Thrown away to close cycles meaning from broke up 
                 Relationships, reaching a more mature age or restart a new life   
                            Mixed with waste, meaningless to trash collectors 
                   That continue their daily labors with the inclement weather.

Lovely, meaningful writing. Toys, technologies, and people, let is keep in mind that, one man's (woman's) trash is treasure to another.
