I remember when I got them
They were only five days old
Their lips were big, and their eyes were small
And their tails were Orangie/gold
I used to feed them twice a day
Once in the morning and once at night
And when it was time for them to go to bed
I would turn on their overhead light
Every week I would clean their gravel
And I would tidy up their tank
I even once gave them a toy boat
But unfortunately, the dang thing sank
Yesterday morning I woke up
And one of my goldfish was dying
Now I know how it feels to be heartbroken
Because all day long I've been crying
I never knew that things could die before
And I never knew I would feel this bad
Because now my fishy passed away
And I am feeling really sad
Dear God, before I go to bed tonight
I pray that my little fish will be alright
