A person named Ego had quite the persona,
Always thinking highly, like a majestic iguana.
But deep down inside, beneath the bravado and pelf,
Lay a tiny, insecure, and fragile self.
A place to show my work

A person named Ego had quite the persona,
Always thinking highly, like a majestic iguana.
But deep down inside, beneath the bravado and pelf,
Lay a tiny, insecure, and fragile self.

For years and years not only did I wear a mask,
I wore a costume. Never showing my true self,
Afraid to be judged. As time went by,
The costume became who I am,
But in my heart, I knew I wasn’t being true.
Trying to break free from the mask and the costume.
