me as a house

The house sat on the hill
It spent along time being build and dreaming of holding a family
Eventually it was bought and the house was happy
The homeowner lived there for a while just renting the house but eventually he bought it but a few months of owning the house he had to move
The house was so sad
Heartbroken
The house felt alone and betrayed
The homeowner promised to come back but he seemed to have vanished out of thin air
So once again the house was empty
But while she was empty she worked on some remodeling
The house liked who it was now
And so did the next home owner
The house was hesitant and still missed the old one alot but the new guy eventually settled in nicely
the house was happy again
For a long time all was well
So well
But then the home owner grew distant and things changed
It wasnt the same anymore
The house tried to please him
But it was hard
Because the homeowner tried so hard to keep the house happy that he lost himself
It made the house sad
The house was sad she couldn't make the homeowner happy anymore
He took a vacation for a few days to try to find himself so he could come back and live in the house like they used to
And once again the homeowner left
The house was sad
But not for long
She realized the homeowner and his life fit better in a diffrent home
So the house was empty
But not for long
A realtor came by
He helped fix up parts of the house
P

arts the house didnt know needed fixing
The realtor found the house perfect
He wanted to move in
But there are alot of repairs left
So before he signs the papers
The house had him wait a bit
And maybe when the time comes
Maybe he will sign them
Or maybe
He wont want to sign anymore
And he'll find a new home
Realizing the house wasnt the dream house he wanted
I hope he'll still visit me tho
