A Fragment of a Former Self
I wanted it.
After going without it for so long,
I was drunk on the attention,
Intoxicated by it.
My ego wouldn’t let me say no
Even though I knew
The hangover would be my undoing.
This short poem emerged during a very different season of my life, a time when ego and intense desire often steered the ship.

Beautiful introspection… Inspires me to look within to achieve the clarity, manifested in this poem.
