False Humility

  • Oct 6, 2025
  • 1 min read

I have a problem with pride

so I choose anonymity

as masked humility

wen actually

it's an excuse to hide


showing my face

can mean rejection

lead to humiliation

failure and dejection


it's a risk to be humble

to be seen as you stumble

to allow space to fumble


but man is it worth it

to not be perfect

to not simply fit

and then be seen for all of it


my pride set aside

when I choose humility

not masked by anonymity

I step into being free


and it is worth the risk
