In the honeyed glow of southern France’s medieval courts, something stirred beneath the surface of ritual and rank. Not a battle cry, nor a sermon—but a song. It came from the troubadours—or trovadors, as they were known in their own tongue—poets who let desire slip into verse and set longing to music. They sang of bodies and glances, of nights too full to hold. Their words brushed skin like fingertips, soft and dangerous. And in a world ruled by duty, they dared to speak of want.| The Vale Magazine

Here's the thing. Passion is a lot like love. At first you fall in, head over heels, you can't help but be consumed with it.

Then one day you wake up and have zero desire to have anything to do with what you were once so passionate about.| The Art Abyss: Art School Never Prepared You For This
