Unlucky

No one else is prepared. 

To be a person who’s luck is never spared. 

They let me live, but not so kindly. 

Hate lives here, long and spindly. 

But even so, I’d never switch-

My life with someone who has never been bewitched. 

I’ve learned to abide, and let them trodden.

On all my hope, which they say is sodden.
