Embrace the darkest and most mystical parts of your soul with Midnight Love Potion, a new adult collection of poetry and prose. Categorized into five parts, this debut collection weaves tales surrounding the enthralling themes of fine arts, regency, fantasy, romance and reflection, while accompanied by a medley of hand drawn illustrations.
The first section, fine arts, explores how poetry, literature, music, and art, may all act as an escape from the horrors we endure within the harsh lens of reality. Enter next into the regency section, which leads you into a world filled with regal rulers adorning elaborate crowns, lavish masquerades rife with stolen glances, and haunting betrayals from those yearning for power and revenge. The fantasy section follows, which is rampant with tales of insatiable vampires dizzy with bloodlust, cosmic witches speaking their spells to the sky, and everything demonic that remains hidden within the shadows of the dark. The fourth section, romance, allows you to embark on an everchanging journey filled with innocent crushes, blossoming tales of love, and crushing heartbreaks. The final section, reflection, delves into self-reflection and the experience of being a woman in a world dominated by and catered to men, leading into poems exploring trauma, misery, pain, and at last, a sense of wary hope for the future.
Between poems singing of amorous love and lustful ecstasy, to tales whispering of harrowing sorrow and grim heartbreak, experience an intoxicating mix of pain and pleasure as you turn each page of Midnight Love Potion.
