Narcissists

In the mirror's gaze, a beaming reflection found.. Ego's captive, their world forever bound. A facade of grandeur, a charade of delights.. Narcissists embrace, their relentless fights. Obsessed with self, a hollow soul resides.. Lost in vain pursuits, where empathy subsides. To laugh or weep, never sees their need.. Trapped, they're blind to all, a prisoner of greed.

I would argue we all carry a measure of narcissistic quality within us. The key is keeping it subdued as best we can. Nice write
