Intimidation

The more I learn about you,
The more I fear that
I am not so amazing as I try to convince myself.

And while I know it's not a competition.
Feelings don't work like that.
I believe I see why you were the chosen one.

I wish I couldn't.
For that would allow fool hope some room to roam
Around my brain,
Filling it with useless thoughts that go nowhere.

And stop me from being someone
Who is not intimidated.
