The Man and His Ego — Larger Than Himself

There are men

who lose themselves

in the sound of their own name.

They no longer speak

they proclaim.

Their words are not a bridge,

but a stage.

Every sentence a performance.

Every glance a statement.

Their ego grows

larger than their shadow,

larger than their truth,

larger than who they ever truly were.

They dress in confidence

they do not feel.

They laugh loudly

to silence what is quiet.

Eccentric in their presence,

exaggerated in their being,

as if they must convince the world

that they exist.

But those who truly see…

notice the crack.

Because the bigger the ego,

the more fragile the core.

A man who outshouts himself

is hiding something

too quiet to admit.

And yet…

one day

the curtain falls.

No audience.

No applause.

No echo left to carry him.

Only him.

And there

where no mask remains

truth begins.

Not grand.

Not loud.

But real.
