Unveil my Mysteries| Poetry

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.

Dark Gothic | Poetry | Lillien Series

April 19, 2021July 31, 2022 Leah Chrestien

The Heavens are Blue | Scrovegni Chapel | Padua

November 23, 2020November 23, 2020 Leah Chrestien
