Wall

I lie down in my four-poster bed, 
facing the pale yellow wall. 

The same that I see above, 
behind my headboard, 
opposite me. 

I drown in the sickly pale. 

I dare not turn around 
to face the wall again. 

Little do I notice 
the little window behind - 
rays of sun streaming through 
little glass panels - 

Gentle apricity grazing its 
little window sill.
