_I write the night away in my quiet corner of the universe, Hoping that my words will reach you; That you may recognise yourself reflected in their distant glow, Catch hold of one bright star in the twinkling density of the darkness, And wish upon it._

Solitary Pursuit
_I write the night away in my quiet corner of the universe, Hoping that my words will reach you; That you may recognise yourself reflected in their distant glow, Catch hold of one bright star in the twinkling density of the darkness, And wish upon it._
‘Solitude gives birth to the original in us, to beauty unfamiliar and perilous - to poetry.’ - Thomas Mann, Death in Venice and Other Tales
