Life Is Like a Videogame

LIFE'S LIKE A VIDEOGAME by Daniel Baez 

Life is partly like a video game, 
Except you cannot play again or have multiple lives, 
It may be difficult and might have some obstacles in the way 
And also, things might happen unexpectedly. 
But don’t get stressed when they do,  
Try to advance in the game and end in it happily 
But once you have made it to the end, you cannot go back. 
But don’t be sad while you are still in the game, 
Enjoy the game while you're playing 
and don’t think of how it will end or when, 
Try to stay positive in the time until then. 
Don’t skip levels or be cheating in the game. 
Don’t lie down and be waiting for something to happen 
Instead, try to commit in it and make worth of the game  
so you can enjoy it!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Ooohh, I love to play videogames, I do not skip levels and do not cheat :) I am fully enjoying it, just as I am enjoying your (free verse) poem. Welcome to PoetrySoup
