Selfish Pride

Letters to Adam
By “Lilith”

Pride, Pride, Selfish Pride.
Stick a needle in my eye,
it would not put a dent in my selfish Pride.
I can see myself in your eyes,
all I see is selfish pride.
There is nowhere to run,
nowhere to hide.
You can’t hide,
from selfish Pride.
It is embedded with me and consumes me.
I will surely die without my selfish Pride.
I hate the way you point out all my ways of Pride.
I see the shame in your eyes.
All I have rejected because of Pride,
is now haunting me till the day I die.
Anger I feel inside has changed my mind.
I will hate you instead of the correction of my Pride.
God has made a mistake.
You are not the mirror of my soul.
I can’t have that much Pride.
It must be you that holds all that selfish Pride inside.

Pride, Pride, Selfish Pride.
Stick a needle in your eye,
it would not put a dent in your selfish Pride.
You can see yourself in my eyes,
all you see is selfish pride.
There is nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.
You can’t hide from selfish Pride.
It is embedded with you and consumes you.
You will surely die without your selfish Pride.
You hate the way I point out all your ways of Pride.
You see the shame in my eyes and
All you have rejected because of Pride,
is now haunting you till the day you die.
The anger you feel inside has changed your mind.
You will hate me instead of the correction of Pride.
God has made a mistake.
I am not the mirror of your soul.
You can’t have that much Pride.
It must be me that holds all that selfish Pride inside.

Pride, Pride, Selfish Pride.
Stick a needle in our eye, it would not put a dent in our selfish Pride.
