How did we get here

In the depths of impassioned passions we drown, Emotional storms raging, a force unbound, Love's essence elusive, a poet's mirage, Today's love filled with pain and rage. Words on a page, a love once pure, Now consumed by flames, lost allure, Evanescent, fleeting, love's fragile hold, A tide that ebbs, a story untold. How did we arrive at this precipice of pain? Where promises of forever are made in vain, Love's sanctity tarnished, a stain on the heart, Once held so dear, now torn apart. In this world of fleeting love and broken dreams, We search for the truth, the love that gleams, Through the chaos and the strife, We seek the essence of true love, the essence of life.
