GIANT

GIANT IN ME
I wake up this morning,
On the street of my neighborhood,
I've being friends with labour hood,
Everything I felt yesterday,
Seems to have everporated to vapor-hood, 5
I still feel very humbled,
As I stand up to my feet,
I saw what looked like my dream work,
Buildings I'd dreamed to work in,
At my thigh height, 10
Then I thought this toy looked like that sky scrapper,
What height of creativity,
I then heared the noise of a sky fighter at my waist level,
It looked like a grass supper,
I looked down to my feet, 15
Oh God,
It's was a pandemonium
Confusion among people around,
Trying to bring a problem down,
To their foot level, 20
They tried all they can,
Their threats weren't still up to my knee level,
I had to take my leave and walk down,
To the stream treading pebbles,
I was surprised when I saw my reflection, 25
"BIG",
They called 'it' monster,
'cos they couldn't phantom,
So they mouth served,
And tongue lashed, 30
Ignorant of myself,
That I was made a genius,
The man inside of me is what I see in my visions,
I ran from myself and trembled to my reflect,
Then it all start to make sense, 35
After I got an understanding of their reflex
Then looked at me,
I see a man whose different,
Like I'm some sorts of angel,
Then I begin to different shine, 40
Every other thing seem very small,
Including those that I used to see as oppressive and huge,
Everything I saw as mountain,
Now become like hips of beach sand,
All those that threatened me with height and their mind, 45
And those that deceived me with words and their lame,
All of them was like an ant,
The strongest of them I could trample on,
And destroy them like a piece of candy bar,
Now I can do anything, 50
I feel like I can do whatever I want,
No restrictions, no bothers, nothing can stop me,
I'm the most powerful force in the earth,
Not even faraday can pause me,
Now a question pop in my head, 55
What will you do NOW?
That you can't be stopped,
It'll be the one thing that comforts me,
My gift, my talent the only thing,
I teach with and that teaches me, 60
The easiest thing I can change the world with,
This one thing over the years changed me,
I tried to refrain but I couldn't get to change,
Pardon me if I walked away but I can't do anything else, 65
Than the lines I lay,
Accept it or not I'll be hating myself if I tried your lane,
Here I slay,
Then that voice said,
That is your way,
Nobody can stop you, 70
Follow and don't derail or delay,
As I turned I woke up to life and I became unstoppable,
I work with all the energy in me,
Achieving my dreams which is laudable,
Starting with the giant in me. 75
