The second hand lost its speed, the fan was in a super slow motion, the door creaked ever so slightly, the time had stopped flowing it seemed. Seldom, such days come in a life when everything feels so dismal, so grim, so repelling. The heart loses its beat, the eyes lose their sparkle, the lips lose their smile and the mind goes numb. Life turns into the glacier which moves constantly but looks immovable. 'Sit and stare at the empty wall' is all there is left to do. The melancholia eats up the entire room like a demon and the helpless, powerless you just watches in great awe. Hallucinations and delusions become your best friends as you watch reality die a cold death. You feel thirsty, you feel hungry, you feel like crying, you feel senseless, you feel tired, you feel sleepy, you feel nothing. Red turns blue turns green turns violet turns brown turns red. The ceiling wants to gulp you up, the floor wants to suck you in and the walls move in, threatening to smash you to pieces. Darkness all around.
machow, koi nimboo paani pilao jaldi....
