The one thing all of humanity can agree on is that the most powerful emotion in this twisted world is love
That is what we desire
What we crave
Love is what the world thrust at us at every turn
From books to movies and music
All we are told is it is overwhelming and magical
But despite this, worldly love is like a drug
It strikes you and you overflow with so many emotions
You are unstoppable
All you need is your love
All you need is you and your partner
Love is all consuming
It makes us feel invincible
It is beautiful and glorious
But while this is occurring, you are dying
It is slowly taking everything
Your personality
Your social life
Your identity
You don’t realize it right away, but you start seeing the signs
You start feeling this dread
You know this is no longer safe but you can’t walk away
You want to keep feeling those great emotions
You think that if you just try harder they will be want they once were
They never will though
They were never true emotions
They were illusions
Sweet, beautiful, deadly illusions
You keep fighting for another hit
Trying to get it to be the overwhelming love you once felt
But that wasn’t love
No one truly knows what love is so humanity made up their own love
But the world’s love is just a deadly drug
It is the most lethal drug possible
Because no one realizes what it did to them until the reason they had the drug in the first place is gone
And they realize
They are just a shell of who they once were
