DREAMLAND

LES MEMOIRS - part 2

I don't feel like writing anything today except that I miss the presence of new moments and occasions in my life. It might be the weather. Rush, rush, Sun! 

Kent: Canterbury, Margate, Ramsgate, Folkstone & Dover















I came across Sweet Darkness by David Whyte and instantly felt swept away. 

When your eyes are tired
 the world is tired also.

When your vision has gone
no part of the world can find you.

Time to go into the dark
where the night has eyes
to recognize his own.

There you can be sure
you are not beyond love.

The dark will be your womb tonight.
The night will give you a horizon
further than you can see. 

You must learn one thing:
The world was made to be free in.

Give up all the other worlds
except the one to which you belong.

Sometimes it takes darkness
 and the sweet confinement
 of your aloneness to learn

Anything or anyone
 that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.
