The ramshackle house once white
Had become quite a sad little sight
It was weathered and worn
Beaten down and torn
It no longer brought people delight

A Little Something
Tag: worn
My Heart
It sat in the corner
Covered with dust
Back in the shadows
Forgotten about
For too many years
Does it still even work
I reached gently back
Through the cobwebs
To retrieve the object
Wondering of its worth
And rusted condition
Does it still even work
I weigh the options
Of picking it up
And looking for signs of life
Knowing it might be too old
Too battered and worn
Does it still even work
Hesitation aside
I gently grasp it
Felling the faintest of hope
A gentle spark of life
Wondering if this is really love
Does it still even work
