Reset Button

Real life

This is the worst possible outcome.

I cannot believe that this happened.

Everything was fine right up until it wasn’t.

Why does this keep happening?

I don’t even have a reason for it.

I did everything right.

All the characters did their part.

This is not fair, not in the least.

Black out, a glitch?...nope

Something caused this beast to roar.

Stop! The rope just broke.

Look closely you might just see it.

The anchor dropped, nothing can hold you back...not anymore, I think.

Run to your comfort, to happiness.

Breathing heavily you fall just short.

Stop and turn around.

Change the destination to a better place.

The game can wait, I’m going back to bed... and hitting the reset button.

Reset! Reset! Reset!.....

So many try’s to get the first time right.

Fighting reality for something different.

Taking out the guns you didn’t know you had.

What a fluke of things to happen.

A shooting star, just when you think it’s coming for you...goes over your head ignoring you.

Calm down, you’re still young for now.

There is a lie in here somewhere, but don’t look for it, let it find you.

The result never changes until something new it added to the mixture.

Only one way to walk.

Don’t look back, you are moving forward.

Rocks never start smooth.

If I could, I would, but I can’t.

Such an imaginary thing from the beginning.

The was never a reset button.
