why am i shy?

Poem #369 for Anonymous

 

I fear arrogance;
was raised believing I was the best,
rooted in superiority.
I have worked too hard to be humble
while I stand in front of people to
show off the gifts I have;
the capability inside of me.
No one needs to stifle me,
I am fine by myself…
So I smile,
this way I allow myself to be great
ignoring that anyone is watching
avoiding attention: the praise and criticism;
have always been given everything,
regularly placed my trust in people who
should not have had it
so temptations always make me question,
always make me want what I feel
I should have
and
what I have never have.

I do not want to be admired by my lover;
I want to be disciplined, shy and humble.
