Ego
Karen Rego Sep 2020
Ego
You feel like a ******* ugly stone,
Sitting inside our heads like it is your own.

But you are actually a defect, which we all should reject
You are unwanted, and you need to be confronted!

When were you born, how did we allow you to grow,
Just leave, you’re not needed anymore!

You damage relationships, you ruin happiness and you cause hurt,
You think you’re above all, but you’re actually really small!

We want to be humble, we want to be grateful and we want to be nice,
But as long as you’re here, we’re all just paying your price.

We cannot afford you anymore; you have become our foe,
Talking to you Ego, it is time for you to go!

Pain

Hey there, Pain
So we meet again …

I really thought you left forever,
But you for sure are very clever.

You come to teach me important life lessons,
But I think I need many more sessions.

No, I’m not running away from you this time,
Yeah, I know my open wound would get a taste of lime.

But then again I think its high time to learn,
That you’re here because strength is what I need to earn.

Let me embrace you and understand one thing
That you’re not a burden but a blessing.

I’ll get stronger over time … you’ll see,
You will then have to walk away from me !

Life
Karen Rego Sep 2020
The more I held on, the more I lost,
It took me far too long to realize what that cost.

The more I wanted, the less I got,
It took me far too long to release that it was a lot.

I fed my soul with fear and became a prisoner of my own thoughts,
I now feed my soul with faith and I am finally free of all my past faults.

I played victim and I cried, and I kept getting weaker,
I now take responsibility for myself and have become a happiness seeker.

No matter what the external world has in store, my internal world will not be shattered anymore.

All I did was one small thing ... I JUST FELL IN LOVE...
