Stoker
One day, life stopped by to play a hand
I pondered, he glazed; and through slipped the sand
Things would have been so much easier, if I were sober
I would have gained priorities; game over.

Concise but complete.
I sense you would have liked to write more
but you are blocking other memories out.
Good write.

Short..
Sweet...
And to the point....
It's not the fast pace of life
That scares me.
It's the sudden stop at the end...
Very good piece.

"Gained priorities; game over." Is that suggesting that by fulfilling average social standards you "end the game" of, would you say, individual quests or wishes? And at the beginning, you just 'decided' to begin life but you "weren't sober" is that an allusion to regretfull decisions? In a way I hate over-analyzing, but this is pricking at me.

good deduction
life is simpler when you don't over think and decide instantly what you would do next.
when you're high you want to consider all possibilities, weigh them against each other, then find the one that's most fun, (new)morally correct, less tiring, less time consuming, easy, non boring, blah, fuckin blah....
being sober means having no to worry about all that lol
you know exactly what you'll do... without arguing with your head. (priorities) :)
