The correction according to a friend:
Judy was DEPRESSED.
She HAD never SEEN the stars like SHE HAD that night. Perhaps she was looking for signs of solace from the sky but it never answered her questions, never GAVE her the presence of God, never got a friendship sign. Only the stars, a lot of BRIGHT stars, beautiful jewellery but they weren’t enough. She always liked walking through the night but that night was too dark for her, no noise around her, all the dark edges of the old buildings were free of details, deleted from her tears . She was crying without any sound, only a big empty space in her head, a stone in her heart(in English we say, A HEART OF STONE (signifying a cold/mean person)- or A HEAVY HEART - (signifying a person who is pain/suffering),
the certainty of having lost everything. She was walking aimlessly when a boat CAUGHT her attention. A sparkling light from the top of the boat was lighting the BANK (coast is used for sea) of the river, tearing AT the deep dark. She didn’t know what they were looking for. She didn’t care. She was hypnotised by that strong light. From the middle of the bridge she had a good VIEW of the boat on the river but she noticed that the sparkling light had deleted all the stars LIGHT upon her. From the sky, no God, no signs, no stars.
It was winter. The icy water of the river cooled her heart INSTANTLY. She could not swim and during her slow DESCENT her sad eyes saw thousands of little lights, a lot of BRIGHT stars, beautiful jewellery but they weren’t enough.
