A dirty window in an empty house
reflecting the sunlight
and the large building across the street.
New buildings made of glass and steel
glass like this forgotten window
that has welcomed the sun and the rain
for dozens of years
that has been opened for fresh air
and closed to protect against the cold.
The window that has been next to the front door
watching the street
greeting the neighbours.
The forgotten white window
watching people with orange helmets
ripping everything apart
carrying everything away.
Nothing is left
but memories
reflected on a dirty white window.
The forgotten window.
