Love, definition #4, courtesy of Merriam-Webster Dictionary: “unselfish, loyal, and benevolent concern for the good of another." Cannibal, courtesy of Merriam-Webster Dictionary: “one that eats the flesh of its own kind.” When I picture love as a cannibal, literally, it is an image that is difficult to digest. But it’s not necessarily one person eating another.

It is a hotel room, it is plain, it is not the nicest place you have ever stayed at. The walls are powder blue and something about the two full length mirrors set on opposite corners of the room provokes discombobulation; you are too thin in one and too wide in the other. But you have the wrong idea right now. This is not a funhouse motel room to make your hairs stand on end; it is a beautiful room, really. Let me give you more.
