How Did We Get Here

How did we get here
 this point of no return and tears,
did you see it at the onset of love
 when it was immeasurably intense
and every heartbeat spent,
 a beat for you and no one else?

How did we get here
 this endless strain of angry remarks
wishing I never loved you from the very start?

Just yesterday, you loved me
 and  here we are today, separating,
you regretting the time lost by your heart
 to search for other possible stars,
so I guess, you go your way and I, mine
 just one more question before we go
how did we get here?
