How did we get here?

Playing with this love of ours

This two edged sword

With you I dance to the tempo of the storm

Pulled into violent emotional highs and lows

Fragile minds, warring hearts.

But how did we get here?

Perhaps the answer is more simple than we think.

During a brief moment of distraction

when we looked away

Hate slipped in

making its home in the core of our so called love.
