luck

luck.

when i see that word written there, i think of fame.
i guess it's because they are what most people want to be.
singing and acting their way to the top of it all.

luck is what you get out of what you put in.
but it can also be part of something planned,
not entirely to be easy from the get go,
of course there's problems involved.

if only achieving luck was as simple as it is in "Harry Potter"
someone can just take a sip of a liquid
and anything they want can go their way for a certain amount of time.

too much luck can also be a bad thing.
people treat you differently,
in ways they never did before.
their expressions can range from admiration,
all the way to hate.

in a way, luck has never really agreed with me.
i've always managed to lose it along the way or search for it
then realised it's not really for me but someone else.

in the end, i don't want fame and fortune,
but i just want a strike of luck to come my way.

just once.
please?
