How Did we Get Here?

In shadows cast by moon's soft glow,

I mourn a love I'll never know.

A fleeting dream, a whisper's touch,

A yearning heart that hurts too much.

I wander through the endless night,

Searching for a guiding light.

But all I find are echoes deep,

Of promises I couldn't keep.

The ache within, it pulls me down,

As tears upon my cheeks do drown.

Yet still I hold onto the pain,

For fear that love was all in vain.

So here I'll linger, lost and lone,

Grieving a love that was never shown.

But in this sorrow, I find grace,

And slowly learn to find my place.
