Forlorn Treasure

Sometimes you are lucky to get something precious. You are very happy and proud of it, place it where everyone can see it and try to make everything around fit together with it. As time goes by you try to take care of it as best as you can but sometimes it is not enough. Time and weather are merciless. You don't always know how to preserve what you have got. Or you just forget to think about it. No matter how you try, your treasure may start to wither. In the end it might be too late to save it. You might feel remorseful, helpless or wretched but it does not change anything. The treasure has changed to something else.
