Shades of Ego

Have you ever noticed,

The many shades of ego;

The one within our hearts -

Being the darkest of them all.


There are many,

A dozen or more;

But about three or four,

I can tell for sure.


The one we wear,

Above our heads;

And walk with-

Pomp and grandeur dreamt.


The one we-

Hang onto our backs;

The lightest and fairest,

And easiest to break.


The one we cling to,

At that last moment;

We think we need our pride,

Its not worth to lose.


And yet we forget,

The darkest kind of them all.


The one carved,

Into our hearts;

Its a masterpiece,

Only the heavens can break.


For when one created,

Is wished to be dead;

Then who can do so,

Except the Creator.


The Creator never has,

And never will;

Accept these-

SHADES OF EGO!!
