When I Lost You Poem by Wong Moli

When I Lost You



When I lost you,
you and I have lost:
because you were
what I loved the most
and you, because I was
the one who loved you most. But of the two of us,
you lose more than I:
because I may
love others
as I loved you,
but nobody will ever love you
as I loved you
