This pride

I can never say that I ever really swallowed this pride
Too much?
It was always in the forefront of almost every journey sought
Alongside choice ,has brought to some fates demise
To some I'm glad to avoid
Between me and this pride is where we're bind
The problem now is that I got a hold on this pride and it won't let me go

Author's Note
This poem is about having too much pride to ask for help.feeling like you could do things on your own cos you don't wanna feel like you need people or are helpless without them.having to constantly remind and ask them about what you need help with.the feeling of owing them after and all.but you live and learn as this kind of pride can cost you some opportunities as I mention "fate" in the poem.I think this is the downside of this pride and I been working towards the other side.
