THE FUTURE I SEE

 

As I spent a whole day thinking about life, I expected the thoughts of how things went, how things are going, and how things will go since that’s what life is about. But I never got what I expected as I only thought of how things will go. That is, My Future.
I saw the great me seated like a Queen in my paradise. Honestly, this has been my drive towards life. I have always felt like a real Queen in charge of my world, but today I got the chance to see it. I just sat down because I never wanted to come out of such pleasant thoughts. Though I couldn’t touch it, I enjoyed watching it. It was more interesting than the Kdramas and Bollywood movies I thought I could not do without. I guess it was because I was the one acting this time, not just that, I was also the Heroine.
Suddenly it became a reality as I heard a voice say to me, “I am with you”. I started touching what I saw, ruling my world, taking chances I did not have the privilege to. I felt like I was one of the brightest stars in the sky. Luckily, I was very close to the moon which made me even the brightest. Of course I did not forget the less privileged. I felt delighted to help every soul I came across. Sharing my light with the darkest soul ever.
My happiest experience came the moment I saw myself writing with a pen that tickled my fancy. Actually, it was not the pen that made me happy, it was what I was writing. As I wrote, I kept humming a tune. That was when I found out that it was a song I have always wished to publish since I was a teenager. I can read out just one line for now, it says,
“Though my soul seems to be the warmest, my heart will always burn for you, Lord”.
I did not have a tune for this song as getting one felt like ages. The miracle of finding a tune made me happier. As I was about to fix in my lyrics, I heard someone shout my name. It sounded like someone I am indebted to. I found out that my thoughts took me into a deep sleep. My mom woke me up reminding me about the dishes I am to wash in the kitchen.
Although I was sad, I was also happy that I finally got a tune for my song. If it were to be someone else that woke me from this hope, only God knew what I would have done. But it was my mom, indeed I am indebted to her, so I let it slide.

Goodness Makuochukwu
