No Longer

I am no longer what I used to be,
No longer strong; no longer free.
I’m not worthy of your Love,
You are my angel sent down from above.

Please forgive me,
For all that I said
As no one will ever be able to comprehend;
What goes on inside my head.

I don’t know why I do what I do;
But all that mattered,
Is that I,
Was with you.

I don’t suffer from insomnia,
I suffer from myself.
These deep, dark secrets that fuel my fire:
But you are my only desire.

I’m forever driving down the highway of Love,
Ignoring the signals sent down from above;
It was a full moon that night,
Just me and you,
No one else in sight.

Not even the stars could shine as bright,
Not even the Sun;
You were truly my only one.

I am no longer what I used to be,
No longer strong; no longer free.
Please forgive me for what I have said,
And what goes on inside my head.
I’ll never know why I do what I do,
But nothing else mattered when I was with you.

These deep, dark secrets that fuel my fire:
I now have no more desire.

I’ll forever be driving down the highway of Love,
Ignoring the signals sent down from above;
It was a full moon that night,
Just me and you,
No one else in sight.
You’re no longer going to be with me, and I’ll no longer be free;
I wasn't worthy of your Love,
As you were my angel sent down from above.
And I've always wondered what to say to someone who’s going to die,
But this time, I’ll stick to:
I Love you, goodbye…

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
