Pride
Is it just a noun?
Or is it more.......
Do we all share a common feeling of what pride is and will be?

When I say will be
I mean that in a sense of
Will we ever be prideful?
Will we. As a community ever be prideful
Can anyone answer that?
It’s getting to a point where I don’t believe
That pride exist
Cause the meaning of pride never really seems to sink into the people of this world.
Some may say we are too prideful
Some sort of unthought out insult, that comes when one human being doesn’t agree with the other

Or when a human such as myself
Doesn’t want to the world to think that he she they we
Are less than the people making that claim

I sometimes wonder
“Do prideful people have good posture”
Cause I sure don’t
Someone can walk down a street and not notice a sloucher when you stand tall to everyone else
The height helps too

It’s just a number
It’s just a feeling
It’s just a belief
It’s just a school
It’s just a country
It’s just a person
It’s just a opinion
It’s just me

I’m too prideful
I’m gonna let the world reflect on that
Not that the world has any thought of who I am
Or what I do
Or that the world even cares
I’m too prideful
Let the world think on that
