Building Your Heavy Ego

There you are,

Sitting on your tower,

Continually laying bricks,

Content with your skewed self-image.

The rest of us are here,

On the ground,

Just as content. 

We are content with our lives,

our plans,

our "what ifs?"

You build your wall up

So you can feel above everyone else

What you don't realize is that,

Something so literal does not translate to be so figuritive.

While you are building your wall,

you sink into a fog of uncertainty.

Which is what you were trying to avoid in the first place.

The worst part is that,

you don't even realize it's happening.

While focusing on something so concrete,

All hope is lost of your original goal:

To be sought,

To be cherished,

To be loved.

To be loved,

To be cherished,

To be sought,

Break down your wall.

You can even ask us to help.

We will.

And you will be relieved.

You will be relieved of your heavy burden.
