Ego, so formidable, never capitulating
Always in the midst of a battleground
An enemy to our inner peace
Causing a disconnect to what we seek
The truth is a challenge to penetrate through
Seeing ourselves brushing a new hue
Reluctant to accept what it offers
Forever striving for those upper echelons
But sometimes ego holds ambition hostage
With its inflated hubris
In the quietness of thought,
Move ego steps aside
Keep that faith in yourself burning
And watch as humility causes your light to shine
