Luck is not on my side
Though I am good
A pretty rough divorce
Friendship breakups
Numerous misunderstandings
Not picking up social cues
Been through it all
God not answering my call!

Luck is not on my side
Betrayed by somebody
Who was once a best friend
Made to feel like a nobody
Ghosted for an innocent Facebook comment
Guilty until proven innocent!!

Luck is not on my side
I've had a tough ride
In spite of being sweet
Always tasting defeat
Be it at work
Or outside work!!

Luck is not on my side
Never been able to take the lead
Though forever learning
Not to mention, improving
To me, India hasn't been kind
Messing up with my mind
Over and over again
So much pain for no gain!!

Luck is not on my side
Where am I bad
As far as character is concerned?
Please be bold
And tell it to my face
Should get me out of a bad phase!!

Luck is not on my side
When will this end?
I've been a patriot
But it's gone to waste
It's time for me
To finally break free
And switch my loyalties
Maybe to our neighbours
Or even better, our old colonialists
Yes, luck is not on my side
But I'm switching sides
Then luck will finally be on my side!!
Poem on all the bad luck I have faced over the years.
