Pride

PRIDE I went in search of pride When I found her; she was so proud of herself She prided herself about like a peacock I told her the humble truth of life Pride, you need to get down from your high shoes Only then can you realize that which you haven't realized The ground on which you stand is not a levelled ground This ground you stand on is only a stepping ground to a higher ground Right now, you see it as a ground higher than mount Everest Your pride deceives you; you are standing on a ground below sea level. She is just a girl She is in herself a self acclaimed goddess She likes to be in control of everything When there is nothing else to control; she controls herself Though not good at it; herself controls her Pride gets the best out of her; humility is her slave She is drowning in an ocean of fantasy and doesn't want to shout for help She doesn't want to get real with reality She is too comfortable to be uncomfortable in her comfortable comfort Your pride deceives you; you are living an uncomfortable life. He is just a boy He is in himself a self acclaimed god He likes to be in control of everything When there is nothing else to control; he controls himself Though not good at it; himself controls him Pride gets the best out of him; humility is his slave He is drowning in an ocean of fantasy and doesn't want to shout for help He doesn't want to get real with reality He is too comfortable to be uncomfortable in his comfortable comfort Your pride deceives you; you are living an uncomfortable life.
