My major flaw,which almost lead to my destruction, is pride.
O thou wretch,hear now and see.
I'm sunk with shame,with my dimmed eyes.
Looking and starring with scorn and pity.
Save me,cries the pain in my heart.
Deep in the emotions of my sorrow are feelings that can't be said.
No one can figure out how miserable my heart is in disarray due to my frailty.
Do I even have the courage fo speak about the overwhelming flaw? Absolutely not!
My overwhelming flaw overclouds my dignity.
My heart is filled with fret and guilt.
Everyone tries to judge me like they are perfect;
They don't know what it's like to live a life out of pride.
Even if they do,do they care?
Will I ever be free from this frailty?
Will I ever be free from this overwhelming flaw?
Pride
