They will never finish the building It would stay in its skeletal form forever because the government is corrupt but then they all are so it wasn’t the grandest tragedy of the world It was a fun place for the kids A place where they pretended to be monkeys and did parkour and whatnot A place where tight friendships and love were to be discovered and kept hidden in the various incomplete rooms and under unfinished stairs The unfinished building was the wonderland of a truly magical childhood And it was still unfinished by the time childhood ended It’s been twenty years and her girlfriends kept asking her why she wasn’t dating or starting a family She just shrugged. Said she didn’t want to hurt any men It was enough those twenty years ago when she told a boy that he had to walk across the high ledge if he wanted her kiss Poor kid was too dumb and love-struck for his own good, but his fall and death took her out of the tomboy phase. She no longer sought adventure and thrill twenty years… And the building was still unfinished
