friday night lights (and thunder)

i’d rather wait and have the darkness than run into an ambush of broken dreams.

it is raining today. it has been raining for two weeks. on Monday I had a sick day. i lay in bed with candles and Vampire Diaries as i watched the sheets of rain torrent down. i felt safe.

this week marks my 5th week back. it went fast. it was this long since i left Sydney and found myself at the end of my London adventures.

the holding pattern i’ve succumbed to is more like a gentle, slow lullaby of boredom. rocking my brain and heart to sleep.

we slope quickly into winter and seasonal depression sneaks upon us. i won't loose my joy this winter. i will in the face of sadness.

soy chai in hand i will read Victor Hugo's Les Miz. standing under my umbrella i will watch the lights of the harbour twinkle against the water.



i'll eventually find fairy lights (they're actually really hard to find) and hang them round my room. i will buy cool frames and continue filling up my point rooved walls with vintage pictures and Paris.



i'll debut my play at a commercial theatre and get a standing ovation. i will take my lomo off my desk and capture sponteneaty. i will stop wishing for Camden markets and Basel days.


i will remember my African sisters and son. x
