The Ego

Night - Photo by Ms. Casila

I hope my ego never keeps me away from who I truly love. - Ms. Casila 

There is nothing left to prove,
I have proven to myself,
That it is I, that has snuffed out the flame,
What evermore is there to do,
I have lost,
The eyes that illuminated my life,
A connection impossible to duplicate,
No one will ever be you.

My ego has massed itself over my heart,
I am not who I truly am, 
In all my reflections, 
I don't see the life, 
I wanted to create with you.
 
My ego has wrecked mayhem,
My days, a blurred monotonous version 
Accompanied by the partner
I have chosen on this world stage,
Over you!

My heart knows, 
It has lost, 
It's beginning to talk,
Complicates every f*cking thing that I'm faking I want, 
I've masked it for years, 
Practicing every chance I get, to show the people
"I've moved on"
"Look at my accomplishments"
All I ever wanted, was to do everything with you.

You won! 
Love always wins! 
It wins with remembrance,
It wins when I hide your smile in my eyes,
You win every time I win!
I hope it gets back to you!
