Ego

i am a burden on myself
I need to set off to be light
Or leave myself on a shore

The light falls upon me
Too rusty and dusty
To clean things up
On me I need to focus upon

The burden I carry
Me, myself and I
I need to slow down
Or drag myself out

Time is there
But too immature
I need to shed me
To find a cure .
