Lucky People

How lucky you are to start out your day with someone that acts like they care A good morning is said in such a way that nothing else is thought of it anywhere How lucky you are to live such a life where you don’t have to wonder at all about things that will happen or what sits in wait or what words you’ll hear when he calls How lucky for you to get all the good out of your situation that you are in While others are living a nightmare watching someone they love live in sin. How lucky that you don’t have to survive each day that seems might be your last You probably don’t even know these days exist in a person you may have just walked past. How lucky you are that you’ve made a nice life for yourself and your family you probably had all the right tools growing up why couldn’t that have happened to me? How lucky for you that you will never know the anguish that goes on in my life What a fool I was to think the sadness would end just because he made me his wife. How lucky that you have your life all in tact each persons needs are all met I can’t help but envy this life of yours because all I’ve ever had was kismet. So now I know that you are the lucky and I am just watching life pass by I’m waiting for my turn to live in the good I guess I shouldn’t question why. 2/2017
