The House I Am

My foundation has cracks- My frame is bent- My walls are shaky- My ceiling is slant- My floors are creaky- My roof does leak- My front door open- And there isn't a back. The grass overgrown- All flowers are dead- Sidewalk has faded- My gate is broken- All friends have left- I have become- A condemned house.

Don't be so hard on yourself, a coat of paint, a repair of the roof...all will be well. Namaste.
