wish she knew
          how much I loved her
          how much I cared

wish she could have seen
         past the mirrors
         the smoke I blew at her

why couldn't I show my love
how come I hid it from her
                                                    
why was I so afraid
what did I have to fear

she use count  on me

but    
      now
      to her
I don't
     even
          count

maybe I feared
        getting hurt
ironicly,
    the regret
        hurts more than
any person
      could ever
           hurt me
I guess you live
           and learn
but I feel
     I may have
         missed
     my chance
           to live

A very intense placement of some heart felt words...  Some corrections that you might want to make would be: to change "she use count..." to "she used to count..."; "ironicly" to "ironically"; and since the jest of the poem is about love, perhaps the last word shouid also be love instead of life.

just an opinion,
