We Trick Ourselves

All our heroes are dead..

we trick ourselves

we believe, despite ourselves, there is better

we are, ourselves, not better

as long as we cannot touch it

cannot see it

it can exist

such as the condition of dreams

if we could achieve what

we dream

we would

ponder our reality

the reality of lying

and self-hatred

and deliberately hurting the

ones we love

and self-hatred

through which we believe,

despite ourselves, there is better

we are, ourselves, not better

we trick ourselves
