undone
Left hanging open
Undone means not completed or not fastened.
Work left undone remains unfinished: The report is still undone.
A button or zipper comes undone when it opens or unfastens.
Figuratively, to be undone is to be ruined or destroyed—overwhelmed to the point of collapse: She was completely undone by the news of his death.
