the walls were white. there were no windows. even if there were
windows, there would be no point in looking.
the sky outside was perpetually grey. a sunless, muggy, grey. but

much like her hauntingly beautiful eyes. and maybe, the room
would be painted yellow.
like her
hair.
anyone who knew her

her eyes looked more beautiful than mine ever had.

and makes more sense.
please someone give it a try?
