Long-time neglect morphs into degradation
A sad sight of a deserted dwelling; a burning eyesore
Tantamount to sown seeds of dreams forgetting to sprout
Unharvested fruits withering on the vine
Undreamt dreams rusting like wet metal
A sanctuary with no one seeking refuge there
A garden without a gardener to tend it; growing weeds,
all the planted seeds staying buried in the soil
