Life. 40.

Ghosts of past. Lingering shadows. Coffee Stains. Yellow newspapers. Lonely cobwebs. Dusty notebooks. Empty bottles. Cigarette butts. Unpacked cartons. Rotting fruits. Dirty dustbin. Broken glass. Rusty bed.

Footsteps. Door. Knock. Knock.

Creak.

Light. Bright.

Smell. Voice. You.

Illusion. Dream.

Life.
[Dedicated to the only reason of my existence.]
