Pride is the fault

My barrier is covered and wrapped viciously in these chains, the effort put into freeing this barrier are slim to none. i don't love and i do not sympathize for the other sex. Enabling my pride to run my life like a treadmill that continuously runs because the key is simply missing and the red button has been disabled. Non stop the running continues, destroying and breaking down anything that comes with in contact of it tread. Life is not a fairy tale, reality is quite vague in this situation. Fairy tales do not come with flaws such as I . Perfection does not exist beneath this barrier and being content with that is the goal that has been reached.
