Hard for him to believe the image was so real
his friend had died years ago
it faded and the coldness lifted what was real
technology could recreate life
make what did not exist a reality before you
with hologram programming
impossible to know was actually real anymore
implants in the brain was standard
private thoughts eliminated now part of the hive
in a virtual realty society had to survive!
So how was it possible to see and recognize him
it was when he was a child
that Jake had that accident always had guilt
how could he be here by that lake
those memories long forgotten streaming back
it was not a hologram or CGI
hit his head maybe the implant was damaged
for the first time since a lad
could think for himself everything seemed real
and his emotions could feel!
But it was bleak he stood in a wasteland of ruins
trees were dead grass was to
how had he got here tried to go walk forward
feeling so weak his mind confused
then his thoughts cleared it was a nice sunny day
now had been put back on-line
this was a much more serious glitch in the matrix
still wired up to the master computer
yet deep in his subconscious the memory stored
soon would overload the mother board!
The awakening was coming and the truth exposed!
