                      The Loss
          Written By Anthony Verzi 4/18/00

                 Why did I do this?
             How could I of been so dumb?
               When deep down inside...
                      I knew
                That you are the one
               But now I've lost you
               Because I was afriad
              Afraid of getting hurt
            Afraid of someone knowing
                    The true me
             You loved me...
                And I loved you...
            But I was too much of a fool
                      To see
            That you were the best thing
              That ever happened to me
               But now you'll move on
                  And I will stay
                Stay here loving you
                 All that my heart
                     My brain
                     My soul
                     Can love
                   Till the day
                 That I perish...
                But I swear to you
               That my last thoughts
                   Will be of you< !signature-->

We all make mistakes in life, it's part of being human. Just be sure and learn from your mistakes. This pain will slowly fade away, but alas it will go .

All my love,

I enjoyed this, and also know this kind of pain and mistake very well.   If this is your life right now, I hope it gets better.

This is a good poem, but so sad. I hope things get better for you!

 I'd rather have someone hate me for who i am,than to have someone like me for who i'm pretending to be
