Pride
Slated as such
But not for much
A never ending battle
Do or die
Without a cry
And no one there to tattle
If one day
It come what may
Without so much a warning
Fight to defend
Until the end
Amidst the grief and mourning
For naught is fair
And none will care
With nothing more to follow
So it may be
To never see
The dawning of tomorrow

I agree with Jane Lisa. Well crafted with rhythm and rhyme.
