So Long Ego

I won’t heed you anymore

What you deem as protection

Is no longer needed

I appreciate your original intent

Sweet in the beginning

But limiting and oppressive now

I have been oblivious to your antics for too long

Time and again hoodwinked by you

Never suspecting that you were an illusion

Now the veil has been lifted

I know what you’re up to

You are no longer my reality

I see that you’ll continue to fight me

Trying to establish your dominance, once again

You know my intent is to be free of you

I will state now that your power is waning

I am doggedly on the path of diminishing you

You might think I’ll win by violence

I know I’ll win by love.
