Robbed of Innocence

I'm going through a time where I'm wondering at how cruel change is... it has taken one of my closest relationships and left me thinking it's better if I end it now... before it gets worse. *Hope you like it!
Emptiness is what I feel when I look at you,
not knowing what to believe.
I know in my heart what to do...
but I don't know what you seek to achieve.

You and I have changed greatly,
there is no innocence now,
and I'm only starting to see...
good job, Fate; go ahead, TAKE your bow!

I'm not sure who you are,
Is that horrible of me?
You have gone so far,
off to where one's eye cannot see.

Before me now is a great trouble,
I'm not sure if it's right to do...
and I know it'll leave you to break and tremble.
But this charade has gone too long between me and you.

You once were something impossible to live without,
but now all I can give is smiles and lies.
Honestly, I'm not sure what brought this about,
but I cannot go on lying before your eyes.

Change has caused a great consequence,
as it has done a very cruel thing,
robbing us of our very innocence...
exposing what we had into a simple fling.

So we are left holding onto a thin pole,
our future together bleak and hopeless,
leaving us holding onto shreds of our soul...
before we slowly recede into the darkness.

Do you like my imagery? Be honest.
Heck no, it was stupid and the imagery sucked.
Heck yes! This is amazing! I love everything! The emotion, the meaning, the imagery... perfection.
Very much! Very good poem.
Loved it! Good job!
It was ok... not the best but not horrible.
