Literary Piece: Pride Goes Before A Fall

Originally written: November 14, 2009

So many things want to flow
From the depths of my heart
Things—or plainly feelings
They’re longing to be spoken o
The suspension must cease

But pride, oh, it hinders
I grope my way to escape it
I fight my way and I get scathed
Pride overpowers me and I fall down

Denial accompanies pride
Brainwashing me to believing
That what I feel is rubbish
And they must be forgotten about

Pride chains me,
Forbids me to tell you the truth
While Honesty reaches out to me
I struggle to grab hold
So I wait until pride goes before a fall
