i looked out of the window and stared into the depths of the vast nightsky.the puffy white clouds,the twinkling stars shining down,the moon hanging precariously low.and for a moment i felt the peace i've yet to experience in weeks.nearly convincing myself that its a peek of heaven.a gust of wind swept me back to reality.where things are far from rosy.where things are in fact slowly falling apart,disintegrating bit by bit.and maybe not far from now,all thats left will collapse too.
i've never seen the classrom block like this.the entire place seemed a ghastly shade of grey.it turned silent momentarily.a little too quiet for its own good.the pupils shuffled slowly back to their classes,engrossed in their own thoughts,wrapped up in their own world.it played on like a soundless black and white film.only that it will never show the words 'the end' when the credits roll.the news came hard though no personal relations were involved.it dawned on me suddenly that life is full of unexpected twists and we should just learn to cherish the present a little bit more,appreciate even the smallest of things and find joy in doing the simplest tasks.for theres only a fine line between life and death.
