Dying To Stop Loving You

I don't want to love you anymore.

I want to drop dead after I hit the floor.

I hate feeling like this. This is not bliss.

I'm dying to stop loving you.

I've tried everything I could think of.

 I'm stuck on you.I don't know what to do.

I guess I'll die loving you. I'm dying to stop.

I feel like a balloon that won't pop.

Maybe I'm not destined to stop.

Maybe I'm really stuck on you for a reason.

Maybe my loving you will never go out of season.

Maybe you are the love of my life.

I think of you daily more than once or twice.

I really want you out of my life.

I want to move on, but my heart still beats to your tune.

I want to fly away from here to get away from you soon.

For a long time, I've been trying to stop loving you.

For the rest of my life, I bet I'll be dying to do that too.

very deeply written, sad indeed but writing poems and expressing your feeling is important. You are not alone!
