Self Respect

Self-respect is earned 

With hard work, it can be affirmed

It takes years to built

Sometimes it becomes a guilt

Self-respect is a gem

We all should cherish 

Its one's genuine deed

Which helps us to succeed

Self-respect helps us go deep to achieve our goals 

Which keeps hitting our souls

Self-respect is at times misunderstood

It should give a spark that all is good

Self-respect should always be adored

And should never be ignored.
