I pressed play

Without meaning to.

I didn't want to play the game.

I heard it was scary.

It was just a mistake.

My finger slipped.


It wasn't my fault.


But now, here I am.

Act 14.

Already, I wish the game would end.

But each time I try to press pause,

or exit the game,

it traps me in again with its alluring features.


Only then do I remember

It's all a fascade.

My character's the villain

That everyone hates.

And I hate her too.


So I work up the courage . . .


And press "Quit".
