Teaser:
Nothing
The clean white tiled room with miniscule prints
Smelling of a fragranced disinfectant
Shiny pieces of metal, artificial flowers
The television blazing in full volume
My hand on the remote zapping
Mind wondering
The rays of the noon sun
Trying to piece through the thick curtains
The cushion beneath
Comforting the drowsy eyes
I sleep away dreaming of the serene air
Green pastures, sparkling rainbow
Captured between the four walls
Mind wanders, here and there, this and that.
