Every day need not be good
As we all know
There is no rose without a thorn
So, if you want good days
You have to take in the bad days as well
However, today is an exception
That has proved the rule
So far, nothing has gone right
Everything I have touched
Has turned into dust, at best
And sewage, at worst
Right from waking up later than usual
To the malfunctioning shower
With my mobile phone joining the party as well
Thus adding insult to injury
As I turn to work
In a bid to divert myself
From the never-ending cycle of misfortune
I see that all my mails have been ignored
And fresh work has landed on my desk
Work that is unavoidable as well as urgent
Thus adding to my stress levels
Which are already at their peak
Alas! The harder I try to turn my back on Fate
The more I end up running into it
Sometimes, even colliding
With a crash that knocks the breath out of me
Leaving me in a trance
Where all I wish
Is for this wretched day to end
