The Winning Fish
I am the fish you won at the fair a week ago
Do you remember the joy and love you had for me on the first day?
How about the bright smile that shined on your face?
O how you rushed to the pet store to buy me a new house
My lovely castle and colorful pink, red, and orange neon rocks
It was so funny when I jumped out and all the water splashed everywhere
Did you remember to feed the fish? Your mother said
As my life flashes remembering all that you forget
Forgiving all the pain you gave me
As I go down the drain
I was the winning fish but all that I won was a broken heart
