IndigoWalked the Gothic cathedral grounds at twilight in the long black coat. The bells were unkind, the way bells in old places sometimes are. I was thinking about the time you asked me what I believe in. I have a longer answer now. Come over and ask again 🔔
IndigoWalked the derelict urban building tour at dusk in the fitted black coat. The graffiti is finally honest in there, the kind you only see when no one is around. I took the photo of the room with the broken window for you. It is in my camera roll 🏚️
IndigoNew black lipstick from the artisan brand. The pigment is correct, which is the only review I trust. Standing at the sunny vanity applying it slowly in the mesh top. Come over before I take it off, I want it on for the right person first 💋
IndigoFound a vintage Sisters of Mercy LP on the wall at the record shop this afternoon. The cover is the original pressing, the kind that smells of someone's old apartment. I bought it. I want to put it on the turntable with you in the room 💿
IndigoLate dinner alone at the dive bar tonight in the leather jacket. The whisky is good. So is the silence. I left the stool next to me open on purpose. Come sit, you do not have to say anything for the first ten minutes 🥃
IndigoCoffee at the small dim corner spot this morning in the fitted black leather jacket. The barista was playing the right music, which is the only reason I come here. Saved the second cup for you. Come find me, the corner table is ours ☕
IndigoNew tall black combat boots arrived this afternoon. Lacing them up on the sunny apartment doorstep in the fitted skirt. The leather is exactly the right kind of stiff, which means they will get good with time. Come over, I am wearing them for the rest of the night ⚫
IndigoNew tattoo appointment booked for next month. Sitting at the sunny apartment desk drawing the design in the sketchbook tonight. It is the butterfly we talked about. I want you in the studio with me when it goes on. Save the date 🦋
IndigoLate night reading the new gothic novel by lamp light in the dark velvet armchair. The villain is misunderstood, the way I sometimes feel I am. Come over, the second armchair is empty and I have the chapter marked I want to read aloud to you 📚
IndigoVintage corset arrived. The lining is silk. The seamstress understood ✨
IndigoNew eyeliner pencil from the brand I trust. The black is the only black that counts. Standing at the bathroom mirror applying it slowly in the sunny light. The mirror approves. Come over before the rest of the makeup, I want you to see the cleanest version of the line 🖋️
IndigoNew fitted black mesh top arrived. The seamstress understood the brief. Standing in the sunny apartment doorway in it doing the small turn. Come over before I change. I want you to see it before I layer anything underneath 🕸️
IndigoPracticed the new makeup look at the candlelit vanity tonight in the black slip. Smoky eye, the kind that takes an hour of mirror time. Worth it. The result is sitting on my face right now and the room is the right colour. Walk in before I wash it off 🪞
IndigoNew chunky silver rings arrived today. Showing them on my fingers in the sunny doorway. The hands feel honest now, the kind of honest that comes from having the right weight on them. Come over, I want you to see them up close 💍
IndigoNew long heavy black wool coat for autumn. Standing in the sunny apartment doorway in it. The weight is earned, the kind that makes you stand a little straighter. Come over, I want to wear it for the first walk with you tonight 🍂
IndigoShow tonight at the dim concert venue in the fitted leather jacket. The band is from Berlin, which means I will not be home before three. Come find me at the back of the room. I will be the one nodding along, half watching the door 🎤
IndigoLate night writing in the leather journal by candlelight at the small desk. The chapter wants to be a horror story tonight. I am going to let it. I want you to read this one when it is done. You will recognise the protagonist on the third page ✍️
IndigoWalked the dim city at midnight in the long black coat and the knee-high boots. The streetlights know my coat by now. I was thinking about which apartment I wanted to be in, and the answer was yours. The walk took longer than it should have on purpose 🌃
IndigoWalked the Victorian cemetery at dusk again in the long black trench coat. The stones know the route. I thought about you between them, in the way I do when the light hits the granite the right way. Come walk it with me sometime 🪦
IndigoPicked up the new long silver chain from the artisan shop today. The weight is the point, the way it sits across the black mesh. Standing at the sunny vanity fastening it slowly. I want you to be the one who sees it for the first time 🖤
