From Your Point of View: Our Loves Suicide

Will you ever stop thinking? Will you ever stop dreaming? 
Not able to keep up, I feel as if I’m slowly sinking.
I can’t keep up with your spirits rapid touch, I'm afraid of losing all that I knew was you,
You once were me, I once was you and that’s all I ever wanted, that’s all I ever knew.
Being saved you’ve changed, not the same person with which I once engaged,
And you now you exalt a new passion, I can't seem to grasp. 

Will that person ever come back, the one I loved the one I lacked?
We once were new, the new is now gone, all that’s left is you,
And I can’t hold on to that to that person any longer.
Slowly I’ll fade, into your memory I’ll stay, accepting I’ll never know you again.
The higher you fly and the brighter you shine, the more I dim, the more I decline,
What once was love is now suicide, for this love will no longer grow, this love has painfully died.

Lost love, in my opinion, one of the worst pains in the world. Thank you for these heart-aching words that flow off the tongue. I hope you can love again.

Thank you for your kind words and opinion. This poem is meant to be from his point of view not mine.... Although the pain was just the same.
