Ego
October 2, 2021
Spiders or snakes cannot compare,
to my fear that does not spare,
A hidden volcano ‘bout to flare,
blood to lava, a moment so rare.
Inside me, something vicious I bare,
you see it now, believe me, I dare,
It’s too late when it’s out there,
stay around and I promise a scare.
It feels like my veins start to tear,
thinking I’m mad, people stare,
But in my head, I do not prepare,
for the destruction of the volcano flare.
An innocent girl with an ego so rare,
she looks up for help - but sees nowhere,
To go, to seek, no one to care,
so she holds it in, the future, unaware.
