"Make yourself at home," I said. and as I said, you did. You made me home - haven to you, and your home, I did become. You brought me life, I gave you rest. You provided excitement, and found comfort in me. I was your home, and you, my resident until the circumstances changed. You up-and-outted; moved right out and left me here, behind. Leaving unwanted objects - useless things - and a restless state of mind. You left to choose a different home, greater than my kind; and left me here with a sign: FOR SALE empty and abandoned.

Moving Out
"Make yourself at home," I said. and as I said, you did. You made me home - haven to you, and your home, I did become. You brought me life, I gave you rest. You provided excitement, and found comfort in me. I was your home, and you, my resident until the circumstances changed. You up-and-outted; moved right out and left me here, behind. Leaving unwanted objects - useless things - and a restless state of mind. You left to choose a different home, greater than my kind; and left me here with a sign: FOR SALE empty and abandoned.
