In the shadows of others, is where I live <br />Striving to be, like every one else, is my motive <br />I follow paths, that have already been crossed <br />My own yet to be uncovered, may forever be lost <br />Has to much time been spent in others foot prints <br />My shadow sprints <br />Racing to be its own <br />Soring into the unknown <br />A new beginning, a path made by me <br />Finding my true calling, i now hold the key <br />No more will i follow <br />No more will I stand in another's shadow <br />I am my own person <br />No longer will i be hidden <br />I will rise, down a path of my own <br />Even if that means I'll be all alone <br />For a life, that's truly mine <br />I am ready to shine <br />Ready for all that's heading my way <br />Setting off into the suns ray <br />Down a path, i walk to discover <br />Myself, finally as a leader.<br /><br />Melissa June<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stuck-in-the-shadows/
