Ironic tragedies.

A man beaten to death on Liberty Street for his beliefs.

A child is cured of cancer, only to have the parents killed in a car crash.

A boy falls madly and truly in love with a gorgeous thing, only to discover she is of heinous character.

A person is freed from twenty years of imprisonment, for a crime never committed, only to be struck by a bus, and is paralysed from the neck down.

A saintly individual commits an immoral act for the first time and dies before a chance to repent is given. It becomes a public scandal and all good deeds are denounced.

After a gallant struggle with mental illness, all demons overcome, only to have the heart incurably broken.

A mute and deaf individual composes a song in their head of such beauty that it could free all of humanity.

A person who jumps from a roof top in depression induced fervour realizes mid way down the beauty and reason for life and living.

Mothers with the best of intentions but ultimately destroy their children due to inability to parent.

Remaining in love with a memory.
