"Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.""The Raven", Edgar Allan Poe

Greetings and welcome to my page. I am a Gnostic spiritualist with a strong background in Wicca. People generally consider me to be weird or strange, but to me that's a compliment. I quite often have my nose in a book, studying the paranormal, spiritualism, alternative religions and the occult. One of my most passionate interests is the paranormal...the spirit world, ghosts and the afterlife, to be exact. I truly believe that there is so much more to this world than what just meets the eye. I believe that there are things in this universe that you cannot touch or see, but are very real. The spiritual world exists all around us...we have only to open our heart, mind and soul to witness its wonders.
On a more personal side, I am a happily married, gothy mom of two. I'm a computer geek and I love to play
The Sims 2, a life-simulation computer game. Another of my favorite hobbies is photography; I love to photograph cemeteries, gothic and Victorian architecture, old houses, factories, buildings, etc. (
check out my cemetery photos here). I love the Victorian era, the Renaissance period and the colonial era. I enjoy art in its many forms and quite often draw, paint, sketch and create web graphics. I write dark poetry (
read my work here) and I also like to do floral arranging and crafts. I live for the beauty in art, all things gothic, music, poetry and books, and want to someday live in England, a country I have adored all my life.
"Thrilling to think, poor child of sin! It was the dead who groaned within."
~ "The Sleeper", E.A. Poe

Gothic pictures and layouts
So let their memory be, now they have glided
Under the grave; let not their bones be parted,
For their two hearts in life were single-hearted.
- Shelley -
Thou canst no longer know or love...those pallid lips so sweet even in their silence ... - Shelley -
And thy loss I deeply feel
But the God that hath bereft me
He can all my sorrows heal.
I REMEMBER SITTING IN MY ROOM WITH YOU LISTENING TO THIS SONG!! I LOVE YOU CUZ!!! MISS YOU!!
Thank you for the add. Best wishes for a dark and lovely week
Alter Bridge - In Loving Memory Lyrics
Thanks for all you've done
I've missed you for so long
I can't believe you're gone
You still live in me
I feel you in the wind
You guide me constantly
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
And ill come home and I miss your face so
Smiling down on me
I close my eyes to see
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
Ooooo
I carry the things that remind me of you
In loving memory of
The one that was so true
Your were as kind as you could be
And even though you're gone
You still mean the world to me
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
But now I come home and it's not the same, no
It feels empty and alone
I can't believe you're gone
And I know, you
