How many times have you been let down?

Have you counted, have you done the math?

It's a staggering number, isn't it?

Everyone in my life has let me down,

in one way or another.

It makes me wonder if somewhere

Someone wonderful might be

Who could cure the sadness

and insecurities within me.

Mostly it seems silly

Because most people say

All life is is one big let down after another.
