Ego

author
Rory McGinlay

I started to identify pass the ego.
I saw in the mirror when I looked 

And noticed the reflection wasn't me.

I saw it in myself when I had to have a beautiful woman, or when I thought I needed a drink;

A mark of a man stained to his soul in ego.

I wanted to rid myself of ego's hold over me.

The flowers they did die
But the horses kept their gallop...

As the face of the moon
Were it not from being...

Empty room

I've been drowning in my thoughts, no life vest, demons in my head they give me no rest.
Wake up...

It haunts the edges of sleep, pulling me awake.
It’s etched into my bones, but I feign ignorance...
