A window,
A window within a wall.
Outside the sun shines.
I gather the air is cold.
I sit here motionless and naked.
The outer world seemed naked too.
But, it is carefully painted by color.
How I wish my skin had color.

I blink...

The window is gone.
The wall stood tall.
The glass had fallen.
The air struck upon my face.
I walked to the window, naked.
I caught a glimpse of the outside.
I stood upon the cill
and started to learn forward.
Silently I floated down.

Again I blinked...

I never touched the ground.

There's really nothing "missing", you just force the reader to use his/her imagination as to what exactly has happened here!! Very deep thoughts you have - and you forced me to think too!! It's so vague yet it's not. Stimulating...mentally.

"The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet
