The Deadliest Poison

Arrogance is poison,
For it kills the heart,
Deadens the mind,
and ruins the soul.

I felt arrogant then,
Feeling like a queen,
In a crowd of others,
Who I thought were peasants.

Oh how wrong was I,
The people I've degraded,
The people I've compared to soil and dirt,
Were in fact diamonds and golds.

Only then I knew,
Different people have a dissimilar shine,
That made them unique;
and special.

Arrogance fools our soul,
While humbleness makes us see;
Makes us contemplate;
with clarity.
