I'm going to hazard a guess that you are opening this file each time you
write these five lines, and that you are using
open FILEHANDLE, ">/path/to/file.txt" or die "Always check for errors: $!";
which will overwite the existing file. Try using
open FILEHANDLE, ">>/path/to/file.txt" or die "Always check for errors: $!";

Note second > symbol
This will append to the file.
Without seeing your code though, it's very hard to tell.
