Ah, Unlucky Me! Ah, Unlucky You!
Ah, unlucky me! Ah, unlucky you! What was all that anxiety for? We couldn't understand it took faith to move on and hold on worth; ah, unlucky me! Ah, unlucky you... nothing that was sad we couldn't bear! We shouldn't have let virtual reality wake us up and carry us along, emotions were strong, not wrong; sheer imagination led us to fantasy! Ah, unlucky me!...

I always held my breath going over bridges And clutched onto countless rabbits feet Watching you from modest distances Just wishing again that we would meet And one night on a random Tuesday Again my wildest dream was real In the same bar we were drunk with love And your heart was mine to steal But all those pennies I threw in the...

Who Knows
When we go, we will never know, what we don’t know, We will never know, that this kiss, was, the last kiss, We will never know, that this goodbye, was, the last goodbye, We will never know, who was sorry, or, if we were sorry, We will never know, what we, or they, meant to say, We will...

Unlucky Strife
UNLUCKY STRIFE: Nudity has your disappointment caused me, For I never thought as much of your deed. It's rotten my whole being. So many years we've sailed together in my haven, You didn't show a green light even, That one day you'll leave. You promised you'll forever be at my side, Not knowing you lied all these while. Time surely flies, As I remember the...
