This is a poem I wrote just now actually. I'll probably revise it a bit and I could use help in doing so if anyone wants to help, but for now this is what I have. I haven't even checked the meter, but I think I'm getting to the point where that is unnecessary. Anyways... Egotism
They say suicide is selfish
But aren't we all
A bit self-centered;
Every supposed
Selfless act
Based on pride?
Could it not be said
That every action
Is a reaction of egotism?
We are all truly selfish inside.
I've had thoughts of bringing
My life to an end--
To begin my eternal sleep--
But would I
Truly benefit
From my demise?
Through all my hardships,
I still wish
That life was eternal.
I guess I'm truly selfish inside.
