Dear Seeker, You packed a punch in just three lines! "Desire and hope" creates a hopeful scene, but "ego groping" introduces a twist, a vulnerability. The final line, "elopes with fear," is genius. It implies a choice, a surrender to fear despite desire. Deep and thought-provoking! - Blessings, my friend, Daniel
