Before A Fall

A saying from the past well worthy of recall That pride is a thing that comes before a fall So many proud people who have fallen from grace Have moved from their hometown to another place To start a new life where nothing of their past is known Though their sins far from bad their past they wish to disown Proud people from past misdemeanors do hide There is nothing more mentally fragile than a wounded pride Pride and arrogance are similar in many a way And proud and arrogant people are not rare in the Human World of today But when their pride is wounded they do not socialize Their deflated egos to a sense of shame does give rise That there are many forms of pride only true for to say And proud people not rare one meets them every day And as is said of pride it can come before a fall A saying from the past well worthy of recall.
