Visions of grandeur, Ethical subsystems of semantics. Morality in this soceity has perished.
Chivalry fades, Yet the art of barbarism flourishes. When did our culture Lose its passion? How did we lose the capability for love?
Lust and depravity run rampant. The few scholars of emotion Seem to fight an unrealistic battle.
May love and respect resurface. For without it, We lose our humanity.

Chris;
If we have lost "the capability for love" how are the last stanza and last line justified? The "we" is either inclusive or editorial. Which is not made clear.
If inclusive, then you as the writer have also lost the capability and are unable to love as described. If editorial, the last stanza and line are meaningless within the context of the poem.
If you'll take out everything after stanza four you will have a poem that is complete and an entity onto itself.
The Matchmaker:
Angela Calminetti, mother of five, New Age practitioner and gifted psychic and telepath, is proud of her family ties and does everything she can to make sure that all of her younger siblings are as happy in love and marriage
When Miranda Nolan inherits a house she soon discovers a need to solve the mysteries surrounding the late owner along with resolving the strong attraction she feels for a co-claimant who lost his hearing and faces a world of silence.
