Embarrassed and poor
Asleep on the floor
Greed and demons
Just wanting more,
An ancient enemy
Again becomes friend
Taking the money
I don't want to spend,
Clouded by past
Time removes truth
As no one can remember
What I had to lose,
Well, I lost it all
As I couldn't fight
As I am so weak
And they are a Titan,
It started so pure
Just a button to touch
And the colourful songs
We danced and such,
But the bets went up
And the ante increased
No such luck
To the poor and deceased.
The tiny victories
Kept us fed
Surely our luck
Would outweigh the odds,
As we pressed on
So close to the win
The demons around me
Become within,
Swallowed by guilt
Self blame and self hate
This life I once loved
Became sedate.
