The more I live, the more I believe
That we are all part of a videogame
That there are levels some of us may never reach
Hidden areas and secrets, unknown powers and potentials — things we may never know
That God holds the joystick and controls everything
That we are mere characters for amusement
And all we have is one life
I enjoyed your perspective! It resonates with mine, but I see it differently. God may have had the joystick in hand at a certain point. But I think he let it go. Why? Because the world he played into, the one he ruled, has a life of its own. And now God is simply a spectator.
Bastard must be having quite the laugh there. Hmm, maybe we get to watch with him when we finally pass? Or, dare I say, have a go at the joystick if he hasn’t lost it?

Maybe even a game called “The Matrix.” Not so far-fetched.

I love this one. Then I should pose the question: And where doth Man find God?

For sure, characters in a game, with levels, and obstacles to overcome, to reach the end.

But i know u will make it to the high levels. God is on your side! I promise! I wrote a poem similar to that and i used the metaphor that we were all chess pieces in a sad game of life. But im so much happier now. My poems and songs are about love and stuff. You will feel better.
