A sword can only pierce the body, but love can pierce the soul. The saying “A sword can only pierce the body, but love can pierce the soul” is about how love can hurt people even more than a sword. It’s not just physical pain that love puts people through, but it also pierces their hearts. This means that even if you are not physically hurt by another person, your heart will be wounded by them.
