On My Way
I am the moon that breaks through the dark night.
I stay hidden behind the light during the day,
Hoping to go unnoticed.
But my time to shine is when everyone’s asleep,
Because then no judgements will be made.
Tomorrow,
I will not hide behind the daylight,
Everyone will see the image
Of the moon edging into the illuminated sky.
I will peek through the daylight,
Letting people know
I am on my way.
I am here.
Soon,
I will rise every day,
Cut through the darkness of the night,
And become the sun.
I will shine so strikingly to show
Who I really am.
I will be seen by everyone
And everything.
