Foolish Pride

By meganmb2004

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Pride is a wonderful thing to contain within yourself.Without pride, what would you know what's worth fighting for,Or how would you know how hard to fight?You must know what's important enough to put all your pride in,But you must also know what's important enough to let it go.If you hold on too tightly to your pride,Everything else can just float away.You have to let go of your pride sometimesIn order to grasp what's truly important.Don't allow your worldly possessions to vanish.The things that are the most importantCan be the easiest to lose.And you won't find out until too late,How you let foolish pride get in the way.This poem is really just a bunch of my rambling that i wrote down on paper. If you have any suggestions, let me know and I would really appreciate it. i don't know...it seems to short to me. Written January 11th, 2002 © on Jan 11 2002 03:36 PM PST   0 • 10
