As I approached the old run down house soaked through to the skin as I was
by the heavy rain I knocked on the red door with its old rusty knocker
I received no answer I got no reply from ringing the door bell either
so I circled the house looking for a way in then finding the french windows on the latch
I went in out from the thunderstorm then I saw it there it was hidden in a dark dusty corner
it was a beautiful still life so lifelike and startlingly vivid in it’s colour and shades
it seemed to call out to me

2words Half Life
hiding from the light
107 words We live in shadows hiding in doorways shying away from electric light’s glare unhappy in the daylight longing for the night writhing in pain if caught by the suns rays struggling hard to keep out of it’s way digging deep holes is how we spend the day tunnelling this way and that deeper and deeper we go hardly needing our eyes anymore that is why we now call this life we lead half life you on my left and you on my right we use drains now to move around we need to be private afraid to be found this half life to which we’re bound.
Half life
Half life
We live in shadows hiding in doorways shying away
from electric light’s glare unhappy in the daylight
longing for the night
writhing in pain if caught by the suns rays
struggling hard to keep out of it’s way
digging deep holes is how we spend the day
tunnelling this way and that deeper and deeper we go hardly
needing our eyes anymore that is why we now call this life
we lead half life you on my left and you on my right
we use drains now to move around
we need to be private afraid to be found
this half life to which we’re bound.
