<Continue...?>

I'm playing this game again,
I've been to this level before and normally about now I begin to lose.
I go through life after life,
Guy after guy,
8-bit character after 8-bit character,
Learning from my last mistake but still failing for some unfathomable reason.

I become disheartened.
Lose my appeal for the game,
I wonder how so many can get past such a simple level.
And wonder how many others have failed,
And how many others have tried as many (if not more) times as me.

Worst of all, I feel it's something to do with me.
perhaps I'm too eager, but then I miss my chance.
Perhaps I'm too slow, but then I feel I miss things.
Mostly, I'm just not good enough.
That part is not a feeling, It's just a fact.

I don't want to lose again.
