How crass you stand before me with no blood to fuel your fame,
How dare you wield such flippancy without requisite shame,
Your very existence becomes my sacred mission's bane,
You bow to kiss my hand and I ignore ignited flame,
How I'm moved to meet you untouched I do remain,
To some it seems foreign why I would steely forge ahead,
This land entrusted to me knows not of hallowed secrets,
I'll keep it to myself while your brave eyes swim in my head,
Your charm can not distract me from the path I'm born to tread,
How I'm thrilled to know you unaffected I remain,
How I've learned to like you undeterred I do remain.
