A Lifetime Full Of Years.

This on-going relationship I can't seem to escape.

 

Four years of heaven.
Four years of hell.
Four years of this sickness.
And four years I've been well.

 

Four years of sugary kisses
Four years of blood-shot eyes
Four years of affection
Four years of despise

Four wild-wind summers
Romance was in the air.
Four long bitter winters
Where neither one of us did care.

 

Four years of glorious days
Four years of sleepless nights
Four years of sweet talks
And four years' worth of fights
 

Four years of innocence
You took away from me
Four years' worth of lies
And my naivety

 

Four years of happiness
And four years of pain
Four years of blues skies
Four years of rain

 

Four years I've loved you
I gave you my heart and soul
Four years you've used me
And left me with this hole

Four long years
Of this push and pull game
Four filled years
And still everything is the same

 

Four years I've been blue
Just so caught up in you
I don't know what to do
If I am in love with you.

 

One year, Two years
Three years, Four.
You'll always belong to her,
And my heart just can't take it anymore.

I like the compare and contrast within each stanza. For example:

Four wild-wind summers
Romance was in the air.
Four long bitter winters
Where neither one of us did care.



Four years of glorious days
Four years of sleepless nights
Four years of sweet talks
And four years' worth of fights


Good job.

"One year, Two years
Three years, Four.
You'll always belong to her,
And my heart just can't take it anymore"

I know those lines so well. I've been through relationship hell more than once, and I adore the way you describe it here.
This is a fantastic poem, and I am totally enthralled by your style.
