Is magnetic, deep, palpable chemistry, type love a myth?

Does anyone else ever find themselves thinking the deepest of romantic love is a myth? Or perhaps it exists, but is never lasting. The great poets, musicians, artists, all seem to have experienced it, but it seems to always be fleeting. Does it ever stay and fight for forever? Does it ever last until the end?

I am talking about the love that feels as though you've known each other over several lifetimes. The depth of the connection is beyond anything you've experienced before. Where there is an unexplained magnetic force and depth of understanding between you. Where the chemistry is palpable and you experience things in relation to each other that modern science cannot explain.

I have experienced what I would call a glimpse of it, and it felt like everything I ever dreamed of and more. But it was short-lived. And now I find myself wondering if I've idealized something that doesn't actually exist. That what I experienced was a fluke or that perhaps that depth of connection is unsustainable long term.
