kitchen ingredients chef
You don't have to be a chef or even a particularly good cook to experience proper kitchen alchemy: the moment when ingredients combine to form something more delectable than the sum of their parts.
moving self blood
You may tell a tale that takes up residence in someone's soul, becomes their blood and self and purpose. That tale will move them and drive them and who knows that they might do because of it, because of your words. That is your role, your gift.
thinking bars feels
It is likely to make us think we are not caged. We cannot feel the bars unless we push against them.
sister heart loss
I do not mourn the loss of my sister because she will always be with me, in my heart," she says. "I am, however, rather annoyed that my Tara has left me to suffer you lot alone. I do not see as well without her. I do not hear as well without her. I do not feel as well without her. I would be better off without a hand or a leg than without my sister. Then at least she would be here to mock my appearance and claim to be the pretty one for a change. We have all lost our Tara, but I have lost a part of myself as well.

I have tried to let you go and I cannot. I cannot stop thinking of you. I cannot stop dreaming about you.

This is not magic. This is the way the world is, only very few people take the time to stop and note it.

You believe you could not live with the pain. Such pain is not lived with. It is only endured. I am sorry.
real eye writing
Secrets have power. And that power diminishes when they are shared, so they are best kept and kept well. Sharing secrets, real secrets, important ones, with even one other person, will change them. Writing them down is worse, because who can tell how many eyes might see them inscribed on paper, no matter how careful you might be with it. So it's really best to keep your secrets when you have them, for their own good, as well as yours.

I am tired of trying to hold things together that cannot be held.
life tired trying
I am tired of trying to hold things together that cannot be held. Trying to control what cannot be controlled. I am tired of denying myself what I want for fear of breaking things I cannot fix. They will break no matter what we do.
people wish cases
People see what they wish to see. And in most cases, what they are told that they see.
circus unexpected finest
The finest of pleasures are always the unexpected ones.
circus cases maidens
Most maidens are perfectly capable of rescuing themselves in my experience, at least the ones worth something, in any case.
pain memories disappointment
Memories begin to creep forward from hidden corners of your mind. Passing disappointments. Lost chances and lost causes. Heartbreaks and pain and desolate, horrible loneliness. Sorrows you thought long forgotten mingle with still-fresh wounds.
