OpheliaLate 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 🥃
OpheliaNew cartilage piercing today. The shop knows me by sight, the artist knew exactly where I wanted it. Showing the fresh piece in the studio mirror in the fitted black top. Come over, I want you to be the second person who sees it close up 💎
OpheliaNew 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 🖋️
OpheliaShow 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 🎤
OpheliaVintage corset arrived. The lining is silk. The seamstress understood ✨
OpheliaWalked 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 🏚️
OpheliaLate 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 ✍️
OpheliaCoffee 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 ☕
OpheliaWalked 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 🌃
OpheliaNew 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 💋
OpheliaTattoo appointment Thursday. Yes another one, on the forearm this time. Showing the fresh scorpion in the studio mirror. Stop counting. Come over later, I want you to see it in good light and tell me what you think 🦂
OpheliaNew 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 ⚫
OpheliaNew 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 🕸️
OpheliaReorganised the closet today. Everything black, the system is finally correct. Standing in front of the row rearranging the velvet end. Come over and see it. Tell me which dress I should put on tonight. I will trust your answer 🖤
OpheliaThe record shop had the new pressing today. Brought it home like a stray. Kneeling beside the turntable in the sunny apartment placing the needle for the first listen. The chair beside me is empty. Come fill it 💿
OpheliaFound a vintage black Victorian corset at the thrift store this afternoon. The seamstress will love it, the boning is intact. I bought it without thinking. I am holding it up at the vintage mirror, deciding. Come over and decide for me 🖤
OpheliaFound 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 💿
OpheliaNew 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 🦋
OpheliaNew 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 🍂
OpheliaPicked 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 🖤
