Bad Omen

I am bad luck

I come into peoples lives and chaos is quick to follow

I'm like a dark cloud

Floating in and out of people's lives

Leaving nothing but gloom and disaster in my wake

I see my friends doing well when they are at a distance

Then when I get close things always turn sour

Maybe I should just fade away

Evaporate into the night

Taking all the bad karma with me

Then maybe I'll be of use

Instead of being a stubborn stain that people can't get rid of, ruining everything

As the cool winter air claws at my cheeks

I take a deep breathe

Hoping one day if I'm kind enough, it'll be my last
