"conceitedness" poems - Hello Poetry

All that I done for you So many I cannot count I hope you'd care for me too But my wishes, to you didn't amount The energy I spent, I time I gave You took, oh so eagerly But it was your turn, you saved And hid everything selfishly Is it wrong to ask the same Or if not a little more? Do you think my love's a game? Why is giving such a chore? Perhaps I've been blinded to see All your self-conceitedness In truth, you never loved me A thief of love and innocence

The Thief ~M.E.T

All that I done for you So many I cannot count I hope you'd care for me too But my wishes, to you didn't amount The energy I spent, I time I gave You took, oh so eagerly But it was your turn, you saved And hid everything selfishly Is it wrong to ask the same Or if not a little more? Do you think my love's a game? Why is giving such a chore? Perhaps I've been blinded to see All your self-conceitedness In truth, you never loved me A thief of love and innocence

I never thought I could sink this low It feels like I'm drowning In a sea of vanity What ever happened to me? Imprisoned by my pride Searching for the light Imprisoned by conceitedness Wanting back my old life I won't stand for this This life I can't forget I won't stand for this This life I can't forget I'm saying goodbye to strife Beginning a new life Leaving my pride behind me Striving for humility

Constantly Striving

I never thought I could sink this low It feels like I'm drowning In a sea of vanity What ever happened to me? Imprisoned by my pride Searching for the light Imprisoned by conceitedness Wanting back my old life I won't stand for this This life I can't forget I won't stand for this This life I can't forget I'm saying goodbye to strife Beginning a new life Leaving my pride behind me Striving for humility

Tick tock Can you hear that clock? We only have so much time. Let us not waste our time dwelling on each other’s past mistakes But on the opportunities to start over and have better memories to make. You only have so much time. Tick tock A constant rhythm Filled with love, confusion and criticism Every minute somebody in the world dies Let us not waste the time we have On conceitedness and lies Don’t let death remind you of what you should have done Don’t let death be a solution to everything wrong Sometimes we fall, but we get back up Time doesn’t stand still, so don’t force yourself stuck Tick tock Time on the clock only stops when the batteries have died When your battery runs out in years, maybe months, or days to come What are you going to regret and wish you had done? Time is precious And I only have so much time. Let us march with those fallen Be them soldiers or an average Joe Every second counts They only had so much time. Tick tock What kind of clock do you got? Does it just tick in your head Over and over again? Do you embrace it or ignore it? Once a minute has passed That moment in time is never coming back So tick tock Be happy, be wise Tick tock We only have so much time.

oh such humility is found here not a cocky one in the lot no narcissism or conceitedness not a word about **** so taut not a one thinks he's better than any other on the site or in the world for that matter who thinks he's always right not one thinks that he is God's gift to humankind or that others swoon for him because he's so very fine at least most don't write it a bragging load of poo if you have to write about it it's certainly not true!
