Neglect

You walk upon the tall grass to look closer as you pass of what was once a place preen now lost in neglect hiding unseen Jagged walls that reach for the sky naked with rubble piled up high Windows broken without glass a faded shadow of it's past Once a place of industry left in ruins to shiver misery Abandon locked and forsaken when no bids for survival taken Pillaged plunder and vandalized still in it's bones beauty survives Grasping heaven with rusted fingers of steel beams Hollow walls of a dead carcass of fallen dreams
