Before you remove my long flowing veil, And uncover the secrets that lie beneath, Be wary of the peril that lies ahead, As you face the demons under the sheath.

Changing Rhythms | Poetry
You spot the twinkle in my longing eyes, You feel the butterflies flutter their wings, We dance away throughout the night - To the sound of lutes and soothing strings.
Sweet Poison | Poetry
Sweet is your poison, deadly are your gifts - Killing me slowly and prolonging my throes.
Liebesträume | Love Dream | Poetry
Swirling mists, misshapen forms - Phantasms of a lifetime by your side - In your loving arms, I embrace my role - As your truest friend, lover and bride.
Kintsugi ❤️🩹 | Poetry
Molten streams of gold trickle down your ruptured face - Of cracks, crevices and crannies, there is no visible trace - The sore sorrows of your past borne with imperial grace!
In Her Eyes | Poetry
Hand in hand, we sail to the edge of the wide world; And into the deepest of still waters all worries toss.
The Invisible Woman | Poetry
I turned heads wherever I walked; I strutted about in sparkling shoes; Those awed gazes meant nothing - For they did not come from you.
Crowning Glory | Poetry
You fill the void in every paragraph - In my world's stage, you play all lives - A thousand deaths cannot strike you Like an ancient phoenix, you survive.
Death By Flowers | Poetry
"Deeper the thorn, redder are the stains of blood, When it touches the spine, I see a new rose bud."
Dark Gothic | Poetry
But this was no embrace like the romance of old days; Knowing there will be no happily ever afters to come, I succumbed to my fate and wait for judgement day; There is no salvation from what I have truly become.
