Climb up the meagrely pile,

Be the pride you were meant to be… And watch every defeat fall beneath…

Her clothes were pristine

So was she…

Yet her heart was torn in between

Without a wrinkle above…

What should she choose

Herself or her’s?

When Giving in to someone’s innumerable whims

Hurt her soul.

‘Let it go!’ someone cried

Definitely not the tormentors circumambient.

It was her bruised heart

Still clinging to her shredded pride…

And she did

letting the deceptive fortress fall!

She climbed up the rubble

Sewing back the respect

That she let be torn…

When she reached up the pile

Every meagre life beneath

No longer dared to scratch her pride…
