Like Cinderella
With her glass
Slipper
I’ll find my way
Make a path
Only I can take.
Like Snow White
I’ll embrace those
Who are different
While searching
For my Prince.
Like Huck Finn
I’ll float down the
Mississippi
And make a new friend
While
Discovering
Something deep inside
Myself
And I’ll find the
Freedom to
Take flight.
Like Helen Keller
I’ll close my eyes
And ears
And hear the voice
Of the creator
In the silence.

This is good, but I have to admit that I've never seen the point of splitting lines into mini-lines like this. I've been studying and writing about poetry for many years, and am always put off by seeing poems like this. It would be improved considerably by changing this aspect. Also, it would benefit from division into stanzas - there are four obvious ones here.
