My 2nd (ish) attempt at "for fun" poetry/spoken word

Just when you'd think it's all over and done,

a final blow comes.

You can't dodge it so you take it in the chest

with no warning, no message, simply strange.

Thoughts and memories all get stirred up,

you try and try but no new epiphany whirls out.

And you reload. Reload.

But no new results come up.

You do the research, read the relevant literature.

But no. Nothing.

You're left with a cloud of questions

a bunch of "What did I do?" 's

and "What went wrong?" 's

But you lost a friend and nothing really can be done.

But reload.
