Narcissism

Too afraid to see within
and if it is what lies within themselves that they fear
who can imagine their fear of my realm?
fire mated with ice
shards and stones
charred bones
and fledgeling trees growing in between

Volcanoes erupt and flowers bloom
perceptions are changed and values doomed
And there i stand, eye of the storm
eyes alight, sighs forlorn

the battles within are fought without
ignorance reigns, in the absence of doubt
forsaking answers, refusing to question
joy abound, neglected depression

refusing to look for what you may see within
so i look instead and admire my prison
darkly withheld, blindingly enlightened
in an egotistic realm, it's courageous to be frightened

And i admire and express the beauty i see inside
apparent to sensation it is, and easy to confide
motlen lava, lush green trees
apparent they are, if u only bother to see

so bespeak i do
the reality that i see
since you are too blind
to behold the beauty within me

Hmm well, true. But then again, I like things to be organized. Also when I write, the drawback is that I switch from thought to thought in my writing and it becomes too random. End result is that the relatively organized pieces of my writing, different people interpret in different ways.
