My dying love

The more days I spend talking to you
The more,my love for you fades. 

My heart beats quieter seeing 
Your eyes once stars, dim.

Your voice a sweet tone
that carried honey.

Now bitter.

I still love you,
but I don't want you.

Your hapless actions-
Fill me with guilt.
I don't know what to do,

you ask once more
 "Is this love true?"
The question hurts 
as I can't even look at you.
