Some may fall in love with their persona
yet at the suffering of their ego

during ” ego “

a mere illusion created with the intention of impressing our peers
yet , may come at the stake of others

after ” vanity “
an expense paid in full with ones own tears
a mere illusion of your own upbringing
yet , may fall towards the stakes of your life

within ” peace “
we are often claimed to be freed from conflict , tranquility at its peak
through all trials and tribulations,
amongst war and a sanity decrease

with pure ” love ” and admiration vastly engulfing our core, resentment and distrust subsisting to puncture those open pores
no being is sheltered from such uncertainties obscure

-Nasira Dupree
