the melting EGO
sits at my bedside
lurking in the far corners
yet it bares to me
newspapers of who I can be
filtering my senses
to a void in self-being
who am I?
enters as I paste the words
on my four walled depression
empty vases of dried
up thoughts and hope
I am trapped inside
pity of self decline
who will come help me?
I sit and stare
with no answers
in great disappearance
I dissolve
the water of life
in my hollow vase

I love this; I really like the way you 'used' the picture yet painted it at the same time with your words; the readers can visulize the picture with your words wonderfully
Fabulous write
Thank you very much for your entry
