All of us failed to match our dreams of perfection. So I rate us on the basis of our splendid failure to do the impossible.

No matter how hard I try
I just can't seem to forget
Thinking about it makes me want to give up and die
But that just makes me look weak

It was your fault but
I have to live with it the rest of my life
Some people call me a slut, whore, easy
You ruined my reputation

I should never have believed it
When you said you loved me
Those three words are just lies
Guys tell you so you'll give it up

I wish I could take back what I lost
But that’s something I’ll never get back
Our paths should never have crossed
Then maybe I wouldn’t have made such a huge mistake

You say you don't remember,
But I will never forget

I really love this poem! I think it's really sad that something like that had to happen to you, but you expressed it very well in your work. Excellent!
