A Misplaced World
a suitcase packed with secrets
a book seldom read
a broken watch that only shows
the past hours instead
a mirror covered with dust
a path that lays nothing ahead
a broken door colored with use
knocking but no sound is heard
a tree left without a leaf
everything it had has been shed
a place we once called home
left to ruins longing to get repaired
