I'm sorry
I have stolen
the one
you love.

The one you
wanted for
only yourself.

Forgive me,
he was just
too perfect to
let go to
waste.

I cringed at the title but I think the poem is well done.

minor point: should be 'too perfect' unless your shooting for a double meaning here: 'perfect' and someone you want to perfect. If so I might think about rewriting that stanza a bit.

Good job,
Brad
