it’s amazing what a difference a few weeks makes. four weeks ago when i got back from holiday in the states, i felt rested and mellow, with a fresh sprinkling of freckles.

but now. nights are officially longer than days, the sun is going into hibernation and i can feel its energy draining from me like the slow leaching of an essential nutrient. it’s a struggle against the forcefield that is the duvet every morning, and i wake up heavy-lidded and puffy-eyed. bleak, watery light comes up just as i’m getting ready for work, and is nearly faded as i leave the office to trudge underground. raw, clammy days invade the weeks. shades of grey pervade everything.

shadows fall, darkness descends.

loney, dear – warm, dark, comforting night
