The One That Got Away Poem by Janis Land Raymer

You were right there
I don't know why I couldn't see
Your charm was so unnerving
It wouldn't let me be
Too late I realized
You were the true one
I was so very frightened
I let myself come undone
Your charisma, personality, and wit
Make for almost perfection
You're a cut above the rest
an absolute distinction.
What's so funny
is you know
this poem is written for you-
I try to picture you reading my words
and their affect on you.
I would have given anything
if he was alot more like you
then maybe we would've stood a chance-
maybe we wouldn't be through.
