ego

your words, like a melody,
singing to my heart;
i may have treated you the wrong way.
deeply, i care.

everyone,
speaking about me,
they're just encouraging it;
my huge ego.

a supernova,
lighting up the whole room.
stop. there's no actual worth;
then it goes down again.

i love what i see in the mirror, is there a problem within me?

sincerely,
how do i want to be seen?
feed it, make it grow,
its too big to control now;
i cant find my real worth.
