Love Note I
The Diagnosis
The room was rigged before you entered.
You are tired.
Not because love is rare, and not because something in you is broken.
You are tired because you have been wandering through a Casino, and a Casino is built so that you never find the door.
The Merchants looked at the oldest ache in the human heart and saw inventory. They took your hope and turned it into a lever. They learned that a romantic who feels prized stops pulling it — so they made certain you never felt prized.
Every cold morning you walked away believing the silence was a verdict on your soul.
It was not. The room was rigged before you entered. You were never failing at love. You were surviving a machine designed to keep you lost.
