the rest of my life

dry eyes empty lungs breath and tears expelled on the day I stopped feeling contemplating flat line rest of existence

Press gently until you feel the pulse, plenty of life. Great entry. Did this one just to get the contest along, lol.

Deep way down deep, I can totally relate to this one Dilly, and it’s not a comfortably numb feeling either, you capture the hopelessness of nothingness in very few poignant words, I won’t dwell! Cheers David

Best dust off the Jane Fonda workout videos Dilly, keep it up! remember ease your way in, and enjoy it with the kids in tow, lol!

Thanks David, it was more a fleeting memory just from the word 'dry' that was in the contest description. I've actually just thrown on gym gear much to the children's amusement and am day 1 of getting fit... (When the contest is judged, hopefully I'll be beyond day 1 lol)
