your heart is an apartment building;
you the landlord
and you invited me to live there
so i made it my home
adorned the shelves with my trinkets
painted the walls your favourite colour
and ignored it when the mould began
creeping up the walls
received my eviction notice
and as the door slammed shut behind me
a sign displayed the words
For Rent

and ignored it when the mould began

and as the door slammed shut behind me
a sign displayed the words
