Ego

Stars are always there waiting for me…
Sometimes hidden by the scorching sunlight...
Sometimes brightened as diamonds….
But how can I be so sure that they are waiting for me only
While I don’t have time at all to look at them

It is raining outside just for me…
Tip-Tap-Tip-Tap ….
Sounds of rainfall...
Sweet but it distracts me from my work...
But how can I be so sure that it is raining for me only
While I don’t have the time to dance in the Rain...

Flowers are blossoming just for me...
Overflowing the surroundings with that sweet scent...
Making the design that was never designed before...
But how can I be so sure that they are blossoming for me
While I don’t have the time at all to enjoy their beauty…

Perhaps this is that which we call Ego..
This sense of having everybody around me
Makes myself complete even if I don’t have the time for others…

I don’t know how long they will wait if I never turn up at all….
Still I hope...
Still I expect them to wait for me ….
Want everyone around me when I need…..
Even if I never care for them…
