Welcome Josh!
I'm glad you're sharing your poems with us.
The trouble I'm having with this are the long lines:
"A zealot for your attention, but it was justified when I was rewarded with opulence; not in material wealth but in your affection,"
"The evanescence of my feelings are apparent, a diminution of my love is substantiated in scar tissue which serves as a reminder of all these now despondent moments we shared,"
A lot can be said without so many words and still have as much impact. Overall, It's packed with a wide range of vocabulary, it helped in delivering the emotional aspect of it. As a reader I can relate to the emotions without having them myself just by reading this.
