Voyaging in the dark ...

"you look at everything and you don't see it only sometimes you see it like now I see - a cold moon looking down on a place where nobody is a place full of stones where nobody is"

Jean Rhys

Voyage in the Dark

I've just finished reading Voyage in the Dark - I still feel chilled by loneliness - it's as though I've been listening to pure yet terrifyingly sad music - 

I think that I'll dream I'm waiting in an attic room - from the windows, I'll see a grey city with no green going on forever - 

I'll lie in a frozen bed, and pull the sheet over my head -
