lonely

This was another room that made me feel especially lonely.
I envisioned someone sitting in this stark cold colorless room looking
outside where the birds would sing and the colors abound.
The window was left opened.
Maybe they fantasized of taking that inviting path just outside to another place.

Imprisioned,,,in mind and body

I once visited an abandoned state mental hospital.The funny part is there was a green chair facing one of the corners!I could almost imagine a person sitting starring at the wall.I tink it was demolished last year or not.While walking into each room,i could almost feel the former abused patients amotions. I walked into the main office.Patients records still craming the shelves and floor.I walked into a room that had a weel chair in the middle of the room.I could just imagine a person sitting there.Tied to the chair.screaming.I walked to the building(5 acers away of the main building)Where the most disturbed patients were kept.The first room in the hall had an operating bed with what i thought was blood on it with a steel tabel with a long curley wire and several strands of hay on it.I wonder what those were used for?

It does make you wonder what someones life would have been like and what they may have been thinking. Very sad. Thanks for these wonderful pictures.
