Me, myself & I… did I miss anyone out?

This is me… and this is where I give vent to my narcissistic tendencies… 

I remain what I was, and I shall remain so… Constancy is a virtue… At least in my books. And that is all that matters.

 I have been tricked by flying too close
to what I thought I loved

Now the candleflame is out, the wine spilled,
and the lovers have withdrawn
somewhere beyond my squinting.

The amounts I thought I’d won, I’ve lost.
My prayers become bitter and all about blindness.

How wonderful it was to be for a while
with those who surrender.

Others only turn their faces one way,
then another, like pigeon in flight.

I have known pigeons who fly in a nowhere,
and birds that eat grainlessness,

and tailors who sew beautiful clothes
by tearing them to pieces

- Rumi, Like This,
