things are not always what they seem

things are not always what they seem

I'm going to cry when
the house goes through
I'm going to sob myself
till I'm sick
in deed I shall
You can't envisage the
pain I have been through
keeping the wolves in it
and the wolves out of it
it's oh so hard at rock bottom
it's oh so hard at rock top
twelve hour shifts six
time a week for fourteen years
nigh on it's took..
and here I am on the edge
of being bancrupt..
because of flippancy
not just from me..
from society, interest rates
and people who will not pay
their dues..in whatever form
so, I will cry very very soon
then book a holiday in June

I don't live in it..it was a venture I pursued.but it's excavated out of my control..it stood for six years empty just after the rise then the fall in house prices..now it is days from being completed..it's a shackle round my neck so fingers crossed..I love the house..I used to live there..letting go....thanks Tina...

I can't explain it.. Maybe I will write it in a few weeks.. The point really is it's hard to keep hold of things.. that once were good.. Circumstances change so having nothing may be the better option..Β
