Falling in love, in my experience, changes you, changed your power and your personality in ways I never imagined. I felt strong, able to face the world, like there was a fire burning inside of me that just lit me up from inside. And then I got my heart broken.

I was told that I’d lost my spark, and they were right. It was like my magic was gone, I couldn’t feel the wind on my skin, or thunder crackling above me. I was deaf to the voices of the earth, my tea leaves looked empty, I couldn’t feel the wild thrill of casting a spell humming in my blood. In short, I’d lost part of myself, something I’m only just beginning to find again.
