Just My Luck

I made a wish for you today But it didn't seem to be enough So to make sure my wish came true I tried some other stuff I tried blowing all the candles on my birthday Turns out they were the trickster ones Went to exhale onto a dandelion But one seed had decided to hang on I rubbed my hands on a rabbits foot But the bunny was still attached Was about to wish on 11:11 When it changed to 12 with a snatch I look everywhere for a four leaf clover But all I could find were three Tried putting a horseshoe in my pocket The horse objectively kicked my knee Threw up a penny and made a wish But it landed on its tail And all that occurred was money short When I threw it in the wishing well So I said a little pray to God above I'm still waiting for that reply Thought I wished upon a shooting star Was actually dust on my eye I have done all of this and more And just when I thought I got through I heard it from my best of friends You were someone else's wish come true
