shhh... your time will come

Going to a public school has a way of deadening any spirit you have in you.

Making you irritated and self conscious, feeling worthy of little or none.

Not being the popular kid, I wonder why I cannot be more in their eyes.

My Father tells me that we are called the 'late bloomers'.  

We have not shown our full potential.

We sit and gain knowledge, experience, and when the time is right we shall shine.

"But I am afraid no one will ever notice me," I say.

"Your time will come," my Father says.

Yes, shhh, our time will come.
