Passion was the opposite of power. Passion was the forsaking of power. In passion, she had offered herself as a canvas for somebody else’s pen, mutely receiving his designs on her skin. In passion, she had allowed herself to dream of a new name, adding his name to her own, chopping off a part of herself as an offering. In passion, she had cut herself up, lost herself, lost days, lost months.
