It quietly dismantles the self you spent years constructing and replaces it with longing that refuses logic and awareness that offers no mercy. In loving, a person is not elevated, they are stripped. Desire begins to overrule conscience, pride learns the language of compromise, and the soul realizes how willingly it will abandon its own principles just to feel chosen. Love does not arrive with comfort or clarity, it arrives with unrest, obsession, and an almost cruel honesty. It does not protect you from suffering, it deepens it. And still, humans walk into it knowingly, because a painful truth feels more bearable than a meaningless safety.
