Pride jumped into a frightening battle, Too selfish, this war was never settled, Almost so dark, felt like stars would rattle. Inside, pride’s heart and spirit were mettled. Pride rejected kindness and charity, She listened to the dark world of conceit, While I avoided her sincerity, Knowing her dark vengeance was bittersweet. Refusing to heed soul’s humility, Pride, she’d surely bleed the murkiest grief, Battling in a war called futility, Pride will get you nowhere, that’s my belief!
