What do you think
This is
A video game
We stare at
Our screens
Collecting tokens
And buying things
In real life we
Mirror this
To survive
Stay Alive
As long as we can
But eventually
We die

Game Over.

Luckily,
You had
An extra life.

Before you
Know it
You're back
In the game
Fighting
To survive
As long as
You can.
This poem is that thin line...that dangerous line. Two sides or more to the story... Scenario 1: Person confuses real life with video game and the ending is sad. Scenario 2: Life is a video game and the program gives us no reason to believe our reality isn't real.  We play video games...a ploy setup by our programmers/creators to make us believe we aren't in a video game. I'm sure there are many other theories out there...
