Selfish Me

A question whispered an indecision bathed in a bitter ignorance

How much selfish am I?

Hush, it's a secret! Promise that you'll keep it

Pretend that you've been fixed and cured

Hold your tears 'til the night

I'm a lake with many entries but with no exit

So, let me live this blight

I don't plan to shrivel, to change my evil, or not even my egocentricity

Did I decided right?

I shout aloud to my inner demons

Only to realize they're stronger than me

I can't do anything, I've been beaten

This invisible ghost, who resides inside me, has completely eaten me up

Thinking about my aches, worrying about my self only

Omitting others who are deeper in the quicksand

Ignoring the problems of today's world

I'm running around in circles

Please, put me back into my place

I'm spinning wildly high!
