What eats at you isn’t all that you are

12_1

The burden of life is that it gnaws at the edges of our sensibilities,

Sometimes they’re tossed asunder, in new places. A phoenix is born from the flames of self-doubt.

When your ego expands, you’re only your own worst enemy,

Caught between you and yourself.

The man I was is just an addition of the man I’ve become.

One spoken-about layer after another,

Until,

Until?

You threaten to cave the sandcastle back into the sand.

If not by your hand, then by the contigencies of a more fickle man.
