An intro of my writing style. POV of an unnamed character

Is this&nbsp;it? I'm not sure.&nbsp;

My back arches against the hardwood floor as I strain to pull the ceiling into focus.&nbsp;&nbsp;It's not a cold room necessarily, but something about the blank walls and plain furniture makes the air sharp. I breath in.&nbsp;

There is a plant next to me. There are plants everywhere.&nbsp;Juzi&nbsp;always&nbsp;waters them;&nbsp;it looks sad and neglected in her absence. Its leaves droop pathetically&nbsp;and crack with thirst. Maybe they hate the room as&nbsp;I do.&nbsp;

I lie like this for a long time, taking in the dips and crevices of the&nbsp;parts of the house no one ever really looks at. The ceiling around the lights, the hinges of the door, the fading paint opposite the windows. It's not a bad house - it's definitely big and spacious. But with hardly any life to fill it with, what's left is an empty, marble, echoey shell. I should be grateful for what&nbsp;I have really. A well paying corporate job plus my inheritance (a small fortune left to me from my mother)&nbsp;leaves me the ability to live rather comfortably. But the thing is, living comfortably and truly being alive are very different things. I used to be alive. Now, I am not.&nbsp;
