'For Vanessa' <br /> <br />I lost 'our' house today <br />The house that we picked together <br />You had so many plans for it <br />We were going to be so happy here <br />But then it all fell apart <br />And you left <br />And I stayed <br />In 'our' house <br /> <br />Many times I should have left this place <br />But I kept on fighting for it <br />For the ideal it represented <br />And now I have lost it <br />I lost 'our' house <br />The only home 'we' knew <br />And while 'we' are no more <br />I have failed 'us' <br />I lost 'our' house today… <br /> <br />30/01/2008<br /><br />Dewald Viljoen<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/our-house-4/
