The Inevitable Thoughts of the Ego

 Here I am,

doing absolutely nothing with my life,
or so you seem to think,

so here I sit thinking about

if it's even worth my time

to try anything other

than what I was intended to do,

but it always leads to a dead end.

There's nothing better than running

into a wall full speed with no brakes,

but that's what life is like for me.

It seems so often

that I find myself going

dangerously into a direction

that leads to my destruction,

but sadly,

it's all a delusion

and I know that I'm the only one

who views myself this way.

The you I speak of is me,

I fight myself everyday

and it doesn't matter

whether I win or lose

because I always win

and I always lose.

The hardest part is remembering that

whether or not I'm like all the rest of you,

somehow,

I've still got my own job to do.
