The atmospheric density and the haunting dark imagery catch the readers attention with the first words. Your gothic queen is a wonderfully terrifying beauty who makes me want to read more. Brilliant work, Daniel!

hello dearest Daniel I fear I will be judged for my delusions I think I will go to hell this is uplifting way to look at things 💕

I believe I’m going to hell too. We can’t decide when, but we can decide how we meet that end. Love this life the fullest and to any good God that should count for something. I’ll stay strong if you stay strong, Brenda.

It’s true
I’ve toyed with you for years…
I felt your heat and watched you burn with desire. I was not free to act so I kept you on a string for years. You expressed your lust often.
Poetically we fucked.
Your masochism called me and while you suffered in unrequited lust you also loved every minute and the occasional 💕 I drowned you in…. It’s what people do who can’t but also can …BIG TORRID LIKE

Hoi hoi
This type of dark poems are generally not my favourite, but you make it work.
The artwork makes it a bit lighter.
Like it a lot.

The poem is a bit more dramatic than my actual relationship haha. But I probably would be pretty lost if it wasn’t for having love and support.
Thanks for the read, friend.
