In Shadows Poem by Erika Wingo

In Shadows

Rating: 5.0


In someone's shadow
I can speak real loud
While standing behind
I can still stand out
In the largest of crowds
In someone's shadow
I can inspire
By the blaze of my words
I can set you on fire
I can draw you to me
Almost magnetically
With the pull of my eyes
And the jazz in my soul
Beneath my disguise
Of someone's shadow
