One Little Piece of Paper

Life is a game of chess. Some win, others lose. As I watch the days go by and listen as the grandfather clock ticks second by second, I am hypnotized and enter a different realm. As I enter this unknown territory, I realize that I am hardly myself. I no longer feel these heavy emotions that weigh me down like I have bricks tied to my ankles and I have been tossed into the deepest lake on the tiny earth we call home. It is bizarre to think that we are so tiny and there is so much more to the universe than us.
