Confession of a self centered man

by ivan070   Sep 22, 2006


My self centered mind;
Confessed to me one day;
Revealing my inner thoughts;
Reflecting my true self;
For the very first time;
I knew who I was;
That little do I care;
About ethics, values and
acceptable behavior;
Truly insignificant to my cause;
Means nothing to me;

I have only lived for my own craving;
Of my selfish needs and preferences;
Being selfish is indeed humane;
And my wishes are always paramount;

I have been hard headed;
And my mighty ego and pride;
Has driven me here;
Before the edge of the razor;
Cutting my throat with no mercy;
Why is the world against me?
What have i done wrong?

Call me stubborn
Or whatever you wish;
Call me dependent;
Call me a spoilt child;
Or even a loser;
I am not really bothered;
I have only lived for my needs;

I am just a little coward;
I needed pity;
My thinking is so shallow;
But I have no guilt or regrets;
And I will trouble the whole world...
With my self centered self;
I am merely imposing myself;
So please understand;
SHOW ME YOUR SYMPATHY...
Oblige me or I will die...

    Its really good doesnt quite say enough. I like how you said you where selfish, But its in how you said it that there is no wrong in it. How you need pity. Its really good. awsome work
