Ego's Mirror
In the mirror's gaze, your love resides,
Narcissism blooms with silent pride.
Reflections whisper secrets untold,
An obsession gripping, uncontrolled.
Eyes locked on beauty, your own face,
Lost in the allure, a self-embrace.
But in this solace, truth hides away,
For vanity's veil leads astray.
Oh, Narcissus, captive of your own spell,
In self-adoration, your heart fell.
Seek beyond the surface, let ego subside,
Discover a world where true beauty resides.
Is this the world where you reside?
