I am... ready


I am... ready.

Ready for the day to come.

The day that I become my own person.

For so long I have lived in the shadows of others.

Not the kinds of shadows that come from trees or buildings.

But the kinds of shadows where I am expected to be other people.

Its my time to shine.

My time to show the world who I really am.

I am ready to come out from the shadows.

I am ready to spread my wings and fly.

I am... ready.
