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...

Just now that I found the me of me...
