Work in progress.

P.S. Notes from my desk #9

My ego n I are mostly best friends. We go hand in hand. Through thick and thin.

Sometimes it gets the better of me. Over powering. I succumb. It wins.

I’m not myself then. Blinded. Deaf. No voice left. I feel darkness within.

In a desperate attempt to grow. I struggle. I fight. Until I let my ego go.

Vulnerable at first; now I walk free though. My soul the spotlight - of this show.

I like it here. Life is simple - Clear. No internal conflict - anymore.

Self-respect came along the way. Keeps me grounded, lest I go astray.

Through black and white. And life’s grey. It’s a new lesson every day.

Today t’was ego that I undressed. Tomorrow another challenge I’ll address.

You see - I’m just a work in progress.
