I was five years old when I first won the game,
Defeating the villain, creating my own fame,
But what did it all mean? I couldn't decipher,
Who was I in this world? Where was my place of desire?
I soon realized that the game was just a start,
A new battleground where I had to play my part,
The fights were different, weapons my own creation,
And each year, the battles got harder, a new foundation.
I tried to quit, but the warrior in me couldn't let go,
I had become one with the game, a part of my soul,
I lived for the thrill of pushing my limits to the brink,
And for that one moment of victory, I would do anything.
But who was I, really? Lost in the battlefield of life,
Trying to survive and thrive through pain and strife,
Was I just a character, like in a game or a play,
Or was there something deeper, more to convey?
Through it all, I discovered a sense of purpose,
To fight for what I believe, to never lose focus,
To stand up against injustice and strive for peace,
To face the challenges head-on, to never give in or cease.
The battles may be harder, but the warrior's heart is strong,
And with each win or loss, I find where I belong,
For in this journey of life, the warrior in me lives on,
Fighting for a better tomorrow, until the battle is won.
So, I may not know who I am if not a warrior,
But in this game of life, it's the role I am destined to conquer,
And with each obstacle faced and obstacle overcome,
The warrior's journey continues, till the next battle has begun.
