Ego

Under the same lonely sky we sit,
Beneath the bleakest thoughts we dwell.
Upon the same dirt road we travel,
Above the brightest stars we ponder.
Under the moon we rest our heads,
Above, the sun beckons our energy.
Beneath our feet uncanny tracks,
Upon our head the shameless veil.
Lips sealed with crimson lies,
Eyes sewn with needles of deceit.
Ears dumb to that which differs,
Truth lost somewhere in time.
Thus stood so high above you,
Losing sight of all alikeness.
As the pedestal shakes and rattles,
The reflection was long overdue.
Peered closely at the shadow,
Dare I recognize the eyes.
Spoke out, with subdued whispers,
As the echoes passed you by.
Comprehend that which unites us,
Steer clear from that which I despise.
Watch closely as the masses form,
Under the same so lonely sky.
