Rome was not
Built in a day.
Rome did not
Fall in a day either.

But nothing is more
Saddening than knowing
The same hands that
You used to build Rome
You also used to
Pull Rome down,
Packed up your belongings,
And pulled them,
To another home you cannot
Quite begin to make your own.
Old poem that never got posted. Originally written January 1, 2014, in memory of our old house, which we moved out of.
