Abandoned houses. They're all over the US, slowly decaying and collapsing, but at one time they were new. Someone assembled the materials and put in days of hard work, sweat, and blood building the house. They looked upon the completed house with all sorts of hopes and dreams in their mind. What happened? What was it like when they left? Did they hope to return someday? Or were they leaving behind a life of pain and suffering? Are there relatives that still own the house that look upon the house with disdain? Or is it a bank dispassionately looking to sell the land? Will it ever be bulldozed and burned? Or will it continue to sit in the corner of the plot rotting away to dirt and dust?
