There once was a time
I used to live online.
I lived for the raids
and played for days.
Nothing else mattered
not even the family.
To my disgrace
I yelled and paced
when they tried to get affection.
Eventually I realized
my life was more.
A video game
was no way to live your life.
But until then
the money I spent
and the time invested
I had thought
was worth it.
But at the end of the day
the server has gone away
and all I have are memories.
