Egotism

by Nawa   Feb 2, 2009


One day it will bring you down
that feeling that holds you up high

you will know what it feels like
when you let down your guard

You think you own the world
but someday you'll know, it is just your ego

speaking to your mind, all these make believe lies
you are better than they are, Oh yes you're star !!

How can it be that you act so egotistically?
Then look at the mirror so proudly?

When you claim to have faith and believes,
equal we are, in unity, God's creation on this earth

and yes you might be unique, but we all are in a way
so raise your head up high, but make sure you do not cross the sky

Keep your ego home but keep it fair ..

    I beleve everything in this world can be used to be good or bad. too much of the thing can have a back fire on the person , even it si a good thing .

    egotism , the act of loving your self more then you love oterh to see your self more than every one . is a too bad usage of self confident . i think everyone need to love himself a bit , and be confident to a point , but he need tio know his humble place in this world . and his capacity . and know when he look in the miror it will be the same race and kind of living being , as every huan on this earth

    as for your poem, you but the last word in it , was a very wize decision to say. and that shows wizdom in your thinking.

    as for structure i would prefer if you cut it into stanzas , 1 bliock paragraphs are the worst kind for the reader eyes , they are hard and heavy to handle even teh poem is good .

    when you let down your gaurd
    you should fix the last word to be guard (typing mistake )

    i tried to look up the word "egotisically" but no result even logialy i understadn perfectly what you mean

    other than these things i nmention your poem deserve the credit and will be noted as 5/5
