The Game of Life


It has come to my attentionn
That I am no longer who I once was
My personality has had an overhaul
And i now have many more flaws

Im falling apart piece by piece
comming undone at the seams
Lost with no direction
I've forgotten about my dreams

I have almost given up on life
I just cant see how its worth the pain
A battle to live every single day
How do I handle the strain?

There was once so much I wanted to do
So many things I wanted to see
So many goals I had in mind to acheive
So much more I wanted to be

And now instead, I sit at home
alone, day after monotonous day
It's true life is the ultimate game
I just dont want to play

I have no desire to battle on
to many obstacles in the way
in the game, life is the hunter
And I, I am the prey.

  • I very much can relate to this poem. I use to feel the same way, until my life made a quick U-turn. Just be patient and it might do the same for you. Never stop writing.

    stark honesty, well composed

    I liked the beginning stanza, and the rest of the poem linked well to the dark topic. You never stray from your point. I hope to read more of your works!

    Maybe using a mnemonic device that captures all your dreams will help, it can develop as you go along and incorporate the specifics of how and why you make a certain situation or reality for yourself. The variables of our ever changing world become more predictable as you learn to see the truth in everything.
