Battle with Despair

Despair

You always know it coming

Castings its dark looming shadows

Like the Demogorgon from the nether world

Power disruption, grid failure

No mobile signals

Everything around you malfunctioning

Still you are not ready

No armour, no weapons or spells

All you do is run, trying to escape

It catches up with you

And you live your worst nightmare once again

You are dead .

Game over .

Start again from the last point of advance.

That’s how the game of life goes.

There are unlimited lives indeed

Nitros and gems and other perks to earn

But you never seem to cross this level

Where you battle and win despair.

You are stuck

With time looping and leaping

But you don’t quit.

You play over and over again

This game of life and despair.
