My Sweetest Downfall

by Bianca Miranda - Sir Winston Churchill High School, Calgary, AB Oct 26, 2009

I should not have given into your temptation.

I should not have given into it, thinking this would lead to elation.

Now, I start to wonder, was the laughter we shared,

The smiles we flashed, as we both stared,

Were they just mere products of your uttermost pity?

Tell me, please tell me, drag me away from dream city.

‘Cause I’m done looking like a fool,

I’m done, fed up, sitting here, all alone in this stool.

Yeah, sure, you gave me bliss,

And you would not believe how much I reminisce.

But all in a day or two,

You reversed it all,

Still, noble one, I thank you,

This’ll be the last, I just have to ask, “Why’d you let me fall?”
