Quote For The Meanwhile

The loneliest moment in someone's life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly.

Awakening

It's been raining all day. Don't know why I feel so attached to this world right now. This is my home and this is my death. I give out a heavy sigh. The grey clouds seem endless and makes everything look so bleak. I lean to my left and I see branches from the rose tapping against my window... I shiver from the wind's bitter touch. I pull my legs closer and lean against my knees.

I have a pile of paper cranes sitting at the edge of my desk and a small gap from the window blow them off. I put them on top of my drawers so they don't fall again. I waited silently waiting for the spring rain to cease. The wind began to pick up. I always did enjoy the sound of rain. I close my eyes for just a second and I daze off for longer than expected.

It's

like

a

nonrhythmic

song.

The sounds of my dogs barking snap me out of it. For those few minutes.. I was at my peace. I can hear my neighbour's gate creek and birds tweeting outside. The rain slowly began to die down. I place the paper cranes where they use to be but the wind blows them off again... Comforting.
