Pride Resteered

As great as I am
Please bear my pride
Can't live out with it
Mean,can't live without it
Stricken Down
Like a puppet in the puppeteer's
Like nothing, as a musketeers
crawling with blood smeared,pain in arrears 
So risen,looking at the battle ground,bare
Swore,never to again fall,there
Walking as swords saw men off
into two, and into tombs
Never touched, I was proud
Evidence of a strength,they suspect
So men opened the way,all around
Crawling dead,battered with wounds, even groaned and rolled away,aside for a great
So I stepped,Never felt this
So honored,Crown,none,eternal furlough 
So maybe, Pride is a belief
That you are who you are not,
So I choose,resteering the steer,remembering of she that fell,the titanic who God couldn't fall, but struck, so falls
To make up and to believe
So since then ,in honour, was received

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
