Third time is a charm, a lucky charm; which means you should have 3 bowls of cereal for breakfast before taking a test or before requiring luck, ever. How lucky do you have to be? Or do coincidences count? Coincidences have taught me a lot about luck. Coincidentally, luck has taught me a lot about nothing. Consider this irony:
I met a girl I didn't know
yet loved her my whole soul over
She was the silhouette of my desires
and from her hand
came the brush strokes
of my dreams.
The shadow cast then darkened
the painting in my mind
and when the light shone bright again the flowers had wilted dry
Once bright petals
faded remain
a reminder of what was
Again I met a girl I didn't know
and she loved more than I returned
in her eyes
I painted beauty and danced true joy
she hung on my every word
Illusions were the medicine
healing both our hearts
Both seeing what we wanted
and believing what we saw
Another petal hits the ground
it bursts into darker colors
Two
Loves
are hung on brittle hopes
Neither recompensing
Whose love will last
or be dispelled?
Both go on un-squelshed
and pending

Is there something lucky about love? Fortunate? Even coincidental? Ironical?
Tell me what causes it.
Love is enduring. Sometimes a decision that isn't easy.
