    About this ebook

    These poems have been written over the course of several years, and therefore reflect a myriad of sensibilities. Some of the poems reflect emotions as they pertain to feeling alienated, misunderstood, or different, Gothic subculture, desire, morbid curiosity, and a love of all things dark, embracing our darkest fears, and confronting our inner demons.

    Gisele T. Siegmund

    Hi, I am from New York. I am an introvert, however I like to challenge myself (and go outside of my comfort zone). I have been writing for several years. I mainly write poetry, but have also written short works of fiction. I am a (non-practicing) licensed Funeral Director, and currently a teacher in a NYC public school. I grew up in a big family, and moved a lot during my younger years. I now have my own family, and love spending time with them.
