My house

for tens of years ..
You're still standing there ..
where we survived ..
take refuge from the sweet and cruel world ..

The time has eaten your life ..
The hut, where I take shelter
From the heat and the rain ..
Now has eaten the time ..
Helai after layer of your skin ..
Has porous and fragile ..

I can only lament ..
Looking at you in fragility my soul ..
I can not do much ..
Because there is not much money to change you ..

I do not know..
I do not know how much longer you stand there.
I'm just waiting for the magic ..
Little grace from the divine ..
To nourish you back ..
Little palace that ever colored my bitter life ..
