Like a mirage, pleasure shines so bright
In the digital world, a fleeting sight
But in reality, it’s empty and bare
It all vanishes in thin air, leaving nothing
It makes us believe it’s real, a deceitful thrill
Pleasure in the digital world is short-lived
Fake and useless and hollow
Many immersed, in this digital pleasure
Filtered smiles, and poses so fake
Can’t match the real personality,
All thrill vanishes, in mere seconds’ time
Leaving us with emptiness, and a hollow
Cherish real life, find true happiness and beauty
Digital happiness is short-lived, just a duty
It’s a mask that destroys genuineness and truth
Find pleasure in nature, in all its beauty
In the moonlight, on dewy grass
Take a deep breath, and let your spirit find pleasure
A genuine smile with humans, is a treasure
Find pleasure in pets, trees, and flowers
What a great contrast, between digital and real
One brings emptiness, the other brings happiness and cheer
