My heart still controls me
Actually it’s my ego
It’s just wearing a disguise
We accept the love we think we deserve
My ego is confused
It thinks I can’t live without romantic affections
While simultaneously seeking from people who cannot give
How masochistic
Isn’t my ego supposed to protect me?
False pretenses
I’m 24 going on 4
My heart is locked in an iron cage
Ego has hidden the key
Do I even know where to start?
