Badge of honor

You weigh your honor like a suite of armor. You think it protects you, but all it does is weigh you down
- a game of thrones

How true,
And reminds me of those who
For their (undoubtedly) good deeds
Expect to be rewarded by the world
Feel entitled to respect

And are bitter
When fate treats them
Just the same as everyone else
And people
Treat them no better than
Indifferent strangers
