The lovely, the deluded, the unhinged, the magical, and even the mundane: nothing is off limits with alchemy such as this.

It serves as a reminder of the massive mess of love you can gain if you learn to open your heart to it. It is a genuine telling of horrid beauty and a raw expression of the human experience. The journey starts within, and the fight for rebuilding is a worthy one.
