Selfless love

Quote: "'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all." - Alfred Lord Tennyson 

In love's great quest, amidst the trials we face, 
We navigate a labyrinth of pain, 
Where hurdles rise, and shadows interlace, 
Yet still, love's flame within our hearts remains. 

Like thorns on  a rose, obstacles appear, 
Social norms, familial bonds entwine, 
Economic woes, our path so unclear, 
And lovers torn by vows they must resign. 

But in the depths of darkness, love's light gleams, 
A beacon guiding lost souls through the night, 
With selfless grace, it mends the shattered dreams, 
And sets our spirits soaring to new heights. 

For love, the word that frees us from life's strain, 
Remains our solace, eternal refrain.
