Tainted Humility

misled pride,
hidden in lies.
no one is sure why?
forbidden insecurity,
one can only know the severity.
borrowed ideas of values:
unlimited unwanted life of blues,
attachment with a price,
teardrop of cries,
torn apart between a set of brooding emotions,
trying to differ between every path of solutions.
navigating through fake secrecy of selfishness;
mirage of self-awareness,
tossing and turning of doubts,
place with a misled concern of peace,
illusion of overbearing contentment.
in bitter treatment of others,
freedom of no comparing faults.
tre true reason of humility under pressure.
