Never Forget That All Love Is Eventually Lost-

I once walked in the falling snow holding your hand
I was always warm even if it was frozen outside
and in the summer we would tiptoe in the sand
but like the sea your love has changed its tide
you said things weren't the same as before
and made me not want to love anymore
 
you and I would lie under the shooting stars
and forget that we were humans too
promising each other we would make it far
but both the promises and stars fell into the blue
you've left me lying alone on that grassy floor
and made me not want to love anymore 
 
when times get quiet all I do is wonder
if you are thinking about me as well
especially during storms of lighting and thunder
and when, behind us, moonlit shadows fell
you lost the time for me and the ability to adore
and made me not want to love anymore
 
I once couldn't be happier like a innocent child
whenever we would sleep together at night
you'd close your eyes and I just always smiled
but you were confused on what was wrong and right
and like your eyes, you soon closed my heart's door
and made me not want to love anymore

You have the ability to open ones heart with your words. The tone of this poem, the innocense of love and forever and the stark reality of a broken trust.
