It played again...


Cold, the room is real cold.
The air is heavy. The walls have a shade of their own.
The bed is damp.
The bed underneath is damp from the water that drizzles from the ruined roof above.
It feels like the rain. Cold rain. Merciless rain.
A wolf howls somewhere. Someplace near.
Those eyes are fixed at the stars. Twinkling stars. Up there. In the murky sky.
The nursery rhyme constantly playing in the head...
Shards of glass from the broken window pane carpet the grimy floor.

Some things in life can never be forgotten

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky!


It played again. Start. Stop. Rewind. Forward. It played again.
As the wait for the dark to rise continued. She had business to mind...

10 cows believe I'm awesome. Do you?:

It feels like the rain. Cold rain. Merciless rain.
A wold howls somewhere. Someplace near.
