The Self: Leader of the Narcissistic World

[Satya]

In a busy room, it’s all about you,
You smile for the praise, wanting something new.
But in all the mirrors, the truth slips away,
In this selfish world, where shadows can play.

You tell your own stories, of wins and of fights,
But listen for laughter; it’s hard to hear right.
You want to connect, but you build a tall wall,
In this lonely space, you forget how to call.

The love that you want feels far and so cold,
You reach for the warmth but hold on to gold.
Outside your bubble, hearts are calling to you,
But in this lost struggle, you might lose what’s true.

So, open your heart to the world all around,
Let go of the mirrors; let love be your sound.
In sharing and kindness, witness the joy that is real,
In a world without masks, where all hearts can heal.

Really heartfelt lines!

Naked truth.
