Given is an acute triangle $ABC$ with $BC < CA < AB$. Points $K$ and $L$ lie on segments $AC$ and $AB$ and satisfy $AK = AL = BC$. Perpendicular bisectors of segments $CK$ and $BL$ intersect line $BC$ at points $P$ and $Q$, respectively. Segments $KP$ and $LQ$ intersect at $M$. Prove that $CK + KM = BL + LM$.
