" Shadows "
When I finally learned to take a look
At something other than countless books
When I finally started to see the shadows within
It was then and only then
That I begin to learn
For only when I begin to turn
And look to my shadows deep within
On my path could I begin
For too many years
I studied the shadows of my peers
Hoping to find the path where I belong
Only to realize my path could not be shown
For as long as I was searching others’ shadows
I could not see the answer lies in my shadows
For it is my shadows that I must see
If I’m to see where my path should be
So for those of you who wish to learn
I say to you it’s now your turn
To take a look deep within
See your shadows so you may begin
Begin to learn where you belong
Follow your shadows and you’ll be shown
For it is your path you need to see
Not the one that is right for me
Blessed be three times three.
