Too Much Love Of Self

 Too much love of self  for you not a good thing

Just leave it to others your praises to sing

Though you must love yourself in a normal sort of way

For to love other people in truth one can say

 

Too much love of self to narcissism can lead

And of narcissistic leaders we regularly hear of and read

And by their sort every day life dreams are destroyed

And because of them so many good people have died

 

It is true if you cannot love self you cannot love anyone 

But by those with too much love of self  good things for others seldom done

In the darkness of their mind grow the narcissism seed

And of more of their sort the Human World not in need

 

Those with too much love of self carry self love too far

Their egos are linked to the size of their home and their car

The impressionable minded they well may impress

But in the World their sort never spread happiness

 

Those with a healthy love of self to others are kind

And to the performing of good deeds are readily inclined

But those with too much love of self of not nice people of to know

As their sort sadly lack in the bright inner glow.
