BOOKS FOR HAPPINESS
As the hours go by,
and the sun sets
into the abyss of the west,
begins to uncover memories
from books read,
I take it out of them
all smile
trapped in the chaos of life.
I read what is written between the lines
of all unread books
in which they hide
secrets of life.
As a child,
I believed
that there is a book
in which it is located
a recipe for a happy life.
I’m still looking for her today,
I’m trying
to write such a book.
I’m not giving up,
I’m going to write a book that destroys poverty…
