Cold (99)

It’s coming. I feel it in the flat more than outside. A beginning of the nipping, sometimes biting of my toes, and the ends of my fingers feeling cold and often numb. He reads out the sunrise times up until the end of December when it is nearly 8.30 am. Shall we survive it? It’s a closing in. And I don’t want to go out into it. That dark. That full dark.
