Shhh…. don’t wake sleeping Pride
With silken fetters she will make me prisoner
Pull out my tongue and sew my lips
My broken heart or tears, she will never heed.

Pride – Is it a she ????
Written well, Shail !!!
Aren’t there both kinds?? But the one who takes me prisoner (if at all) will be a ‘She’ Pride never a ‘He’! 😛 😆 If He Pride dares I will definitely punch him. 😛
lol 🙂
Good punch !! Loved it !!!
Ok guys I am not in Australia. Wonder why Airtel says that I am! *baffled Shail*
So true! I could say something similar to my Pride also 🙂 Though sometimes Pride can be empowering also – helps us take no nonsense.
Yeah true. I wish that pride (empowering kind) would be active ALWAYS.
Pride they say goeth before a fall
but it sure doesn’t let you crawl
and when it comes making a call
it will not mind about anything at all.
Shail, Is a ‘she’ pride stronger than a ‘he’ pride? 🙂
Lol, that was in reply to Uma. Pride is Pride. For me its a ‘she’ That’s all. 🙂
well scribbled, poet of the fall:)
Thanks Calvy 🙂
My pride is a She too..my muse is a He. She is restless and He is depressed. I wish, she was sleeping and he was happy.
Same pinch Rashmi. But He is not depressed though, at least I think not or maybe he is 🙂
Very nice poem. Thanks for sharing.
Once again, your writing puts your readers in a better position
to see (and to “benefit” from that insight).
And thanks for sharing.
