Virtuhab

The healing instruments
And the steps outside
From the system that just says goodbye
You find it when you revert
The engines that propel you down
And don't give up in the pain that touches you
Seeing that the dream was just that
That love never came
Nor glories for virtues
Or applause for skills
Because the world...

The world is this dimly lit and bloody avenue
Traveled with frights and surprises
And what you value is stealing pleasures or happiness
Eat sweets, make children,
Climb hills, drink on the beach,
Kicking shells and finally smiling unhappily
Knowing or seeing that teeth await you
From the mouth that howls there on the corner called the end
Just now that everything was forever...
Just now that I found the me of me...
