After my school days were done
I began to plan my new reality.
working long strenuous days
never time for any fun.
pinching my pennies every day
to buy myself a new home.
long hours and sweat and tears
I finally found the right house one day
Getting the key in my hand
I entered in and lost my breath
For it was like walking back into history
to a place far away, and to another land.
so much to see and explore
with all the ornate and eerie things
some cloaked with sheets and plastic
behind each and every door
I have lived here for a lot of years
investing my time and money
slowly getting things done
ignoring the harsh things I'd hear.
