Worse

4/10/02





You visited my dream last night



Again star of the play



In longing for the night



I was rushing through the day



You made the greatest actor



Your lines were right on cue



I want it a reality



So here’s what I’m going to do



I’m going to tell a secret



One that I’ve held dear



Although the thought of losing you



Has filled my heart with fear



I’m going to say I’m sorry



If you don’t feel the same



I know that you are perfect



Flooded with praise and fame



I understand I’m no one



At the bottom of the scale



The only thing I’m showered with



Are both stones and hail



No one’s ever loved me



You would be a first



It’s okay if you reject



My life could get no worse

Never downgrade yourself. Others tend to take you at your own self- evaluation. Your poem is very expressive, but be careful of self-fulfilling negative prophesy. Good writing.
