An Ego Ever Growing Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Wanting to meet you half way, but never given the chance,
because you're always wanting to be first, selfish, self-
centered and having an ego that grows bigger every day.

Leaving this love I have hidden in this heart to wither
and die within, having no one to share feelings and emo-
tions with or anything else for that matter.

What do you have to offer, but your self-conceit, ego and
selfish ways, do you actually think someone wants to be
last and not treated with dignity and respect, were you
brought up in a broom closet or what?
