My Soul's Dark Night (A slave to pride)

A slave to pride I'm humbled

Strong enough to stand,

To weak to fall I wonder-

Which becomes a man?



Inside of me a poison

Comprimising with the soul.

Coursing through my veins,

Its hate is black as coal.



And yet inside my spirit

I see compassion, strong as fate-

My hate gives birth to love,

If only love of hate.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Not who I am, but a short chapter, perhaps a page, of my emotions.
