My Life Still In Beta

An invasion of privacy, increasing my anxiety; All for the sake of piracy, stolen opportunity. No where to go from here, just a name to smear; Why? Just to cause tears? Yet they’re the only one that cheers. Robbing all the trust, blown away by a single gust; an identity left to rust, a digital life to readjust. So little left for me, to believe in this community; Laying among this social debris, resulting from an Alt+F4 hotkey. Multiplayer was devastation, now I’m single player in damnation; Where’s my new destination, co-op or further isolation? No more trust of new names, who knows the aim they claim? Silly me for trusting those in games, save for a few but it’s all in flames. Maybe a blessing in disguise, that this part of me dies; Focused energy on a different prize, so that my life isn’t digitized. Upon the horizon I see that new life, behind me a wake of strife; Ahead of me opportunity in rife, as I look upon this new afterlife. They altered my source code, but my cloud connection isn’t slowed; New passions and goals to upload, an updated life to download.
