Humility

As strong as
As smart as
As savvy as
As sage as
As smooth as
I project myself to be

I yield
Each and every time
To your presence.

You make me nervous.
A feeling I am most unaccustomed to.
It itches against my skin like sandpaper
It pinches on my nerves like tight shoes.

As fly as
As fun as
As funny as
As fresh as
As fantastic as
I project myself to be

I am humbled into euphoric submission
Each and every time
You smile.
