Letter to an egomaniac

So you say you want entry into my life again.

Like it is something, you just walk in and away from.

Your little power trip will not discourage me

It will not run me into the ground with self doubt.

And go ahead, shout at me all you want.

I have well and truly closed myself off from you.



It’s all just nonsense, and I don’t believe.

In games of the mind, where nothings as it seems.

I believe in honesty and clarity

I believe that my heart should not be broken

And my mind should not be stifled.

By your petty, and self-centred words.



Why do you think that you will gain respect

By trying to diminish and demean someone else?

It just hasn’t worked out, your plan was flawed.

Because you destroyed your own sense of self

And nobody is comfortable with you anymore.



So you come to me, saying you’re ready to forgive.

Forgive me for what exactly? I’m not sorry.

Nor will I ever be, for doing what was right.

I cut you off. And you walked

I’m not the one wanting reconciliation.



How do you expect anyone to be truthful to you

How do you expect anyone to be themselves around you

Let me invite you in on a little secret, ‘’grand high master’’.

The power that you have, you’ve created in your head.



And I wont be convinced

By what that imaginary god says!
