Egoism

By Paris Thulare 

It grows at home 
It Affects the other part of the family as whole
As dull as bread mould 
They catch the Cold

Relationships start flooding
Friendships start drowning 
As bacteria it multiplies 
As a virus it perforates

Instead of helping 
They start separating 
Instead of cheering 
They start starring 

They try  holding you back with negativity
So you could see the impossibility
They love to be in charge 
When the stage is not theirs they change 

When you spit it out 
They start giving you false eyes
They create Barriers 
They can't handle the truth 

why do we let jealousy rule our souls 
it has brought extinction to many hopes
it has wrapped trust with mud 
now everything is falling apart
