Child.

you reminded me of innocence

how natural the pearl shines

how beautiful the colours of a day is

it's the hope of a possibility

presumed murdered entitial is undead

still breathing seven grounds under


you reminded me of everything

I never get to experience before

knew the feeling or had a close guess

that was before I saw its reflection on those crystal walls

crashed together before ours

knowing a feeling is just knowing

before its pulls you into the wonderland


you begin following Herald

aces all around you

filled with hope

with a mental state

peaceful like the sleep of a grandma

without interruptions

filled with pure bliss


you showed me

where there is a bird

where it's allowed to re-humanize

we talked about it patiently

trying to figure out

magnificence of denials

we sat together under the shades of crimson

conversing all night about what's left of human


we talked about that innocent child

who was born as a human

turned into a creature of everything it isn't

was an infant once before

capable to make wishes

live for everything it wanted

it was dependent but in a magical way

owned the liberacy of the kingdom


we had a talk once

he whispered

he said that he never felt alone

all the love was everything he needed

to build a home


he told me about how he loved his mama

before the child was lost in infinite drama

he was happy to be around

outside world was warm and cozy

fulfilling every expectation he had in the belly


but then his time

it was time

he used to watch his reflection

never seeing it for the person he is

but who he to become

mystified but crystal clear


he examined as the mirror one day

decided to put some emphasis on his shoulders

he looked at a man

man of his world

filled with unclarity

leaving the double

he went to give his mama a hug

he now knew three words

far more than enough


he went to sleep

dreamed about how he loved his mama

how beautiful she was

like a princess with a feathered gown

a tiara on her golden hair

reminding him that she is the proud ruler of this kingdom


boy wakes up with the nightmare

seeing the mother ever different than before

she has lost the joy

calls for the father

remembering that he is not home

he tries to sleep

waking himself up the following day

he realizes he isn't himself anymore

this manly creature isn't he

and the mirror is lying no more

Hello

says the double

I've been expecting you

boy looks around with interrogating eyes

you know the answer

himself goes on

no

no I don't

he says

I'm sure you feel it

himself continues

I can't touch it

he says

Really

Can you not feel with your eyes

himself asks

I

I don't know

I never tried my whole life

We're taught anotherwise


another verse that is

another verse of the first chapter

the everlasting chapter of infinite lies

welcome to the reality

this is now who you are



But I

I don't like this

it is warwick

it's like a wolf



Some would prefer the word Alpha

himself continues



Am I a wolf

I don't want to be

this is not I



and what is I exactly

a scenic expression of your momentum

considering the circumstances

I is superpositioned



I don't like this

Please

Please save me from this deed

he repeats, trying to count the feathers

making their appearance on his claws



do you know what you were born as

the double asks



Human!

the boy excitedly shouts



and do you know what that means

do you know what it means to be human



I get to be me!

the boy cries out



and who is you

an interchanging entity

are you really there

or is that a reaction of your visuality



"I think

therefore I exist!"

the boy continues



what do you think

you know your fate is to become a better wolf

being human is an opposition

it's a nonsensical word people use to prove their authenticity


where am I?

let me out!



double smiles from the otherside



I know you are to become a wolf

like the rest of your pack

Just once, for you,


I want to try being a human.
