Broken Pride

Heartache by nature

Pain by thought

Lust for a future

Thoughts torn apart

Needing acceptance

Willing to fall short

Bleeding for truth

Unwilling to ignore

Hurting in depth

A mask put on top

Showing fake laughter

Unable to stop

Lying to stay real

Hiding inside

Wishing you understood

The reality of broken pride
