Hey there, readers, writers, and new friends! I write as D.L. Bogdan and Darcey Bonnette in the UK. Thus far, my work centered around the intrigues of the Tudor court, however now I'm shifting gears to new eras after a long hiatus. You can find my work on Amazon! #historicalfiction #author

I crave the autumn
Oh, but to last a long while
Cider and crisp leaves

I mend what you broke
rising from despair's ashes
scarred and yet stronger

In the waiting room
I ponder what healing means
it's much more than this

Your love was a trap
but I found the secret door
and set myself free

consumed her with such deep guilt
there seemed no mercy

Love feels alien
the kind that's steady and calm
I yearn and I fear

how I longed to believe them

snuggling an old fluffy dog
feeling what peace is

with material triumphs
and an empty soul

stained with my tears in a drawer
locked in from my heart

A strange happenstance
ghost standing in the corner
Does he call for me?
