Prose – Ego Aphasia


– Ego Aphasia –

You see yourself as a heartfelt fanatic,
with thoughts of your self image always as the one fantastic.
Yet you are steadily becoming an emotional aphasiac,
truly apathetic towards the feelings of others.
You don’t really feel things any deeper than anyone else.
You only fill up the holding space with your own emotions,
making them bigger than that of those around you,
leaving no room for anyone else to fit in and feel for themselves.
