Lucky enough to be unlucky

by Roxiee An   Aug 17, 2007


Only the blind knows what these two eyes can see
Only the deaf knows what these two ears can listen
Only the dumb knows what these two lips can speak
So I think they are lucky enough to know their worth
but more unlucky not to be blessed be the senses

Only the orphan knows how the parents covers you up
Only the widow knows how the partner secures you up
Only the single child knows how the sibling cheers you up
So I think they are lucky enough to know their worth
but more unlucky not to be blessed be the owns

Only the poor knows why some money is required to live
Only the diseased knows why good health is required to walk
Only the prostitute knows why selling shame is required to eat
So I think they are lucky enough to know their worth
but more unlucky not to be blessed be the possessions

Only the broken heart knows where does it pains
Only the dead soul knows where does it stings
Only the crying eyes know where does it hurts
So I think they are lucky enough to know their worth
but more unlucky not to be blessed be the love

I know that one day you will know all this by yourself
But I fear it may be too late,
so late that
I think you would be really lucky to worth them
but everyone would be away to make you curse your fate

So get up right now my dear friend
I dont wanna witness your foreseen cries
