Shun Your Ego

‘Shun Your Ego’

Lavish dreams with boots king size

dancing all ‘round sharing high fives

Soaring hopes beat mountain peaks

It’s what still keeps me alive

But nothing could beat me, nothing can harm

I am the one and you are none

Can’t go wrong, is all I think

I shall win, it’s all said and done

Construed mind thinks only one way

Just win it, come whichever way

Forgot the ethics, lost the way

Hurdles and bigger hurdles, now on my way

Had the talent, spirits were high; 

one thing still wasn’t yet right

My soul lost the battle, 

as my Ego slapped me tight

The battle maybe lost, the war is not

Resurrected conscience helps even the lost

Threw the ego out of my soul

For all the talent possessed, I shall never again boast

Renounced my ego, dumped six feet under
A Reincarnation it is, better late than never

Feeling free as a bird, have no inhibitions

I have got more wings, Can now fly higher

But burst again the darkness clouds

and began the sky to cry

Rekindled hopes slumped south

whispered in my ears, come’ on give it one more try

This ruthless world still vies

to grab your piece of humble pie

Let just your ego die, 

But you never never never say die 


Do Drop in a line if you like the poem
My favourite stanza - 

"Construed mind thinks only one way

Just win it, come whichever way

Forgot the ethics, lost the way

Hurdles and bigger hurdles, now on my way"
