I wholeheartedly believe there’s luck in love,
good luck and bad luck.

Many relationships, never the right one, and
many cracks and scars on your lovelorn heart –

bad luck.

You meet your first girlfriend in high school,
a teenage romance that usually doesn’t last.

Despite the odds, you remain true to each other,
get married, and stay in love for the rest of your lives –

awesome luck.

And some seem lucky in love while others seem
unlucky in love.

The worst bad luck love, that I’ve seen countless times
on true crime shows, is when your bad luck in love

costs you your life because the one you thought you got
lucky with was a monster that ended your life.

And far too many good women and good men in this
uncertain world die that way.
