The bubbling rage under the crispy skin.
The salty tears behind the beautifully presented eyes.
The never ending worry flattened with a rolling pin.
The mournful sadness hidden in culinary lies.
I never want to face them, nor do I want them to know.
I always fear my friends will see my flaws.
I hide them by letting my culinary passion flow.
I hide them with my skills in knives and saws.
Cut the meat. Dice the potatoes. Let them simmer
Slice the heart. Then pour in five cups of raw emotion.
Grind the cumin. Add some ginger. Put in the pepper.
Pour until covered in anxiety. Share yourself with caution.
I use this to hide. To never show my pride.
I will one day show them. plate them like my dishes.
I have so many on my side.
Maybe I shouldn't hide the sidedish of emotional fishes.
Maybe I will get to meet and love the ones who care so endlessly.
The ones whom I wish to share my culinary love and feelings.
I only need to continue, live on and hide culinarily.
And they will come or I will go to embrace my friends with the future that brings.

Just seven years and a million more,
I’d spend with you, I would adore,
I gaze at you, look for your eye,
I wish that you would call me “mine,”
Though not on paper, not a line,
By these seven years more I would abide,
Though perhaps not aloud to you,
I would not dare,
But to the stars, whispered to the air,
I’d gaze at you, and feel in my chest,
A tightness growing, losing my breath,
As softly, my mind calls in the peace of the night,
I love you,
I love you,
I love you, my wife.
Softly,
~ Nico

I love how in the Dracula Daily fandom, we don’t say that we are beginning once again on May 3rd.
Rather, we say “my dear friend Johnathan is preparing for his upcoming trip. I hope he has such a wonderful time and that he brings back some delicious recipes :)”
And I think that’s beautiful
