Hiding in the Dark

by Jonathan Blair   Nov 24, 2006


Hiding in the shadows of another person.
Run when they run,
Walk when they walk,
Sit when they sit,
Stand when they stand.
Can't do anything on my own.
Struggling to be noticed.
Regretting this position in their shadows.
Wishing for my own light.
Wishing to not be in their shadow.
Can't turn back time and choose another destiny.
Feeling pain that is unbearable.
Waiting for the day to come when the light shines,
Not only on them but me to.
Waiting,
Hoping,
Praying,
For the light to shine on me for the first time.
Praying for the day when the light shines on me to prove myself to everyone,
Make them feel dumb and not me,
Make them feel unwanted and not me,
Make them live in MY shadow,
Make them go through what I went through,
Make them pray,
Wish,
Hope,
For the light to once again shine on them.
The light is shining on me,
They are going through what I went through,
Thier on their knees Praying,
Wishing,
Hoping,
For the light to shine on them.
This feeling I got when I seen them,
Wasn't the feeling I thought it would be,
I feel regret,
Remource,
Hated,
I feel like going back into the shadows,
Back to hiding,
Back to doing everything someone else does.
I regret Praying,
Wishing,
Hoping,
For the light to shine on me.
