​Dark and cold, emptiness.
The doors are closed and I am wondering what they are hiding.
There is light at the end.
But no movement, why is no-one around.
I don’t know whether this is peaceful or if horrible unknown lies behind these doors.  I want to push them open, one by one. I want to walk systematically and open them to let light into this dark corridor.  I want to yell out, or stamp, make a noise to see if anyone is around.
Is this space empty and vacant, it feels like it, but I just don’t know.
I have been looking now for some time and nothing has happened.
Where is it and why is it so cold?
Hello ………. Is anyone here?
Nothing
Why are there no lights when the end is so well lit?  Natural light or whatever and I can see light seeping through some doors, or is that night lighting?  I really don’t know.
I don’t like this space dark, cold, empty.
