Karma Tonic: Chapter 30: Luck that crawls

A desire backed by a prayer
Bell rings and distance looks so sheer
Loads of joy, skating through a fear

Aah, there it is, lemme cheer a beer
Too close to lose, but clutch failed this year
Oh yes, your bad luck
Laughs at every tear.

You hold on to the rope

Never losing the left out hope

You fight, you float

You let the pain bloat

But bad luck still keeps a scope.

It rains, to your belief

The wash gives you a relief

Sun stumbles, it recedes

You plead till your knees

But guess what?

Bad luck still chuckles by the beach.

Heart is a beast

Always fancies the feast.

Fist of dreams, feast of grief

An inch of love, Oh what a piece,

Windmill halts, scream of beseech
Cream of misery, luck again halts with a screech!
