WALLS
Is that Ego?
Constraining the view,
They stood above thick and high.
Separating me from the world,
They talked of a thing called pride.
Time nourished them,
Their strength increased day by day.
Convincing me that’s my fate, it
Enclosed me in its seige.
I now lay down, crumpled.
The voices reach me,
And I scream in reply —
But, does it ever reach the terminus?
I feel the distance growing.
But got no tool break —
these barriers of brilliance,
That have grown like weeds,
all around me.
From the beautiful fields of love,
Gobbled up I was.
And here, am caged now
In these unseen walls.
Useless is my strength, my force
It’s all empty in here,
Can’t step outside either.
But that doesn’t matter,
And all I got now is painful leisure.
Afrah~
Pov: Ego and pride gradually eats an introvert, and that introvert knows.
