LOST PICTURE


Lost in thought. Suddenly the feeling is stronger with the smell of dust in the air. Cars passing by and hooting but still the sound is miles away. It is a hot, dry summer’s day everyone minds their own business. Eyes fixed on the building; its majestic architecture is breathtaking, old and dusty. It tastes like soil on my tongue. It’s a different country, the street poles close and the buildings out of focus makes my thoughts run away to a foreign land. The light reflection behind the tree is blinding and the sound of the old clock ticking from a distance almost like a heartbeat sticks likes a song, the world is slowly revolving unnoticeably.
