It was just a feeling at that time.it was still an egg.
The rush and the unexplained happiness that would create a beaming smile.
It left people wondering sometimes I was termed different.
But they were right, I didn’t belong. No matter how hard I tried.
I wasn’t happy within me and that was because it was not meant to be.
Then the dreams came and came to pass, I was still an egg so I couldn’t understand.
It became a larva, it was growing
With a ravishing appetite for success and desire for attention
The changes in my pattern and how I slowly grew into something I never wished for
I didn’t try to feel among again, everything fitted almost perfectly
But the desire was still there and it became a chrysalis, it formed fully in my mind,
It took time to but it was finally formed ready to bloom and show the world what it has turned to.
Oh! What a beautiful monarch it became!
How it showed its beautiful colors to the world and it all seemed like it was yesterday
All the dreams were finally conceived. All the visions and messages were finally one
Then I looked around this psychedelic world and told myself that I was distinct
No partition could hold me down and that beaming smile would be immeasurable
It was time to start living the life I only imagined.
My illusions and fantasies could be the starting point to my world dominance.
