He Renovates

He constantly refurbishes,
revamps and remodels his home.

I asked him: why?

He said: 'I don’t have enough time, I tire easily,
I do what I can'.

When he is not working on household projects,
he sits in the dark, heavy curtains drawn.

Your poem seems rather sad and lonely, but I can understand. I don't know if that was the intention of your poem but either way, I like it even if I got the meaning wrong.
