Ode To the Egotist

I have listened to your moaning,
A voice that trembles with pride;
I have felt your anger so violently,
Thinking you were about to subside.

I have sought shelter far away,
Where all-inclusive tranquillity reigns;
Silence is complete without being traced,
While my mind all sanity regains.

An augment of egocentricity you are,
Not knowing how to be true and just;
Poorly afflicted by indifference,
Love to fill the awaiting heart is a must.
