Foolish pride,I hold onto you but you leave me filled with disdain. I will not back down or admit my flaw because you won't let me. I begin to isolate myself from the world and convince myself that nothing or no one is trustworthy. I believed that you were the reason I made it this far in life and that no one would bring me to my knees begging for mercy. Foolish pride. What have I yet to gain by embracing your idiotic tendencies? Your reason for being? To show the world that I'm no push over? Today you will not be embraced, today when I swallow my pride I can feel my foolish pride die a little inside.
