I Let Me Down
We all know what it's like to lose;
To fall face first on concrete floor.
Or get this urge to tighten a noose,
Around our necks and do much more.
We know what it's like to scrape our knees;
To see our yellowed teeth in old pictures
Or spot our crush with another Miss,
Giving up those lips we'd kill to kiss.
Yet again, I can't help thinkin',
That nothing beats being let down,
By the person you thought you were,
And the future you thought secure.
