BE MY QUEEN

into the firmament

my eyes were closed as I heard that slow music penetrating my ears it went to my brain and suddenly filled my whole body it brought me higher in the sky that I felt like being in the firmament

'i love it when I have this feeling'

then I slowly opened my eyes and found myself in front of a huge public and everyone was staring at me with double eyes

suddenly I felt weak into my knees and my thoughts were telling me

' what if no words comes out of my mouth?' 'what if it's just a dream and I will wake up and forget about all this?'

but deep inside I knew that it was not a dream this was real I was in front of a public that was eagerly waiting for me to say a word

they were all quiet that I thought they would eat me live if I loose their patience as a chill went down my spine before loosing my control my eyes landed on mom who was sitting next to dad all with a smile of light that was encouraging me to go on they were the only people with encouraging faces

'what happened to these others? '

well the encouragement of the two was far important that the thousand people inside the room. I closed my eyes again and for another time I felt the music within me that gave me more confidence I was already in the sky again. when my mouth finally opened and the words came out in that ' smooth Angelic voice '. as my friends used to tell me

when the words began going out of my mouth unended as if my brain was a full ocean of words I didn't care about those faces in front of me and just focused on my passion

I continued performing looking straight into the public that was still staring at me.but this time most of them were crossing their arms to the chest listening carefully not loose a word of what I was saying like teachers who were listening to a reading examination of her students before giving them points

I didn't care nor got scared I continued as I heard my voice monopolize the room it felt like heaven slowly the frown faces began getting a lite smile on their lips I went on and finally pronounced the last prose of my poetry and I was done

a big sound of applause followed me as I bent to them as a thank you sign the MC came on the stage and praised me when I was heading down into mom's embrace who had already stood up with her hands open waiting for me, I ran towards her and fell into her arms the embrace was so deep that I felt like burying all the feelings that I was having into her chest

" thank you baby, you did it" she said almost a whisper to my ear " I love you so much" she added not letting me go

" thank you mom, I couldn't have done this if not for you" I whispered as I felt a tear coming down to my chick 'what? a tear? aren't I supposed to celebrate and laugh? why am I crying now?' I asked myself in disbelief ' no it's not a sad tear but the excess of happinesses' I pulled myself slowly from her embrace and looked into her eyes when I saw that sincere love for me that they were reflecting I couldn't stop my mind from saying

"I love you mom" then I let her go and went towards dad and embraced him, as I had finished my performance I searched for a sit inside the room for me to admire the others but unfortunately I missed one the room was all full and other people were standing up 'what?' did all these people see me there? no way

when I was about to leave dad knew what was in my mind and

" come and sit on my lap princess you deserve it" he said

since my childhood dad used to call me princess because I up to the age of 14 I was the only girl at home followed by 5 boys, but I loved them and they lived me too we used to play together and do most of the things together, I was my parent's favorite child for that but my brothers were never jealousy they loved me so much and were proud of me

I smiled and a "thank you dad." came out I sat and turned my gaze to the stage what I saw made me form an 'o' to my mouth and the whole public was staring differently from the look that they gave me I now understood why they gave that look at the beginning

this girl was so stunning I think the words beautiful, stunning, elegant,cute... were under the descriptions of what she was her face was perfectly made with that straight nose and pink lips,her hair was crossed into a ponytail letting loose her long hair from behind that gave her a more stunning and younger face she was putting on expensive jewelry, she had a short pink dress that was tight to the upper side and loosening from the waist her shoes were a water color high heels that we could think they are not unless to the smooth pink design inside the heels

compared to me who was dressed in a red long dress, I black wig that was not new but still cool with a watch on my left wrist with no much makeup I didn't look as rich as she was

' oooh I didn't look rich, that's why they had that look on me when I started what a shits the very important is that I'm with mom and dad and they love me I ' I comforted myself and as I never accepted to fail easily I promised to win over her if not today the next time I would come well prepared

' anyway i made them smile and clap with only my words and not my looks and that's what counts the most in poetry ' I continued to comfort myself

but mom who knew me very well got a worried face when she saw me like that I bet she new what was in my mind

'' princess, you don't need to get worried mom is here, and wealth is not happiness you know that too''

" no mom don't worry, I know that and I'm so happy to be your daughter" I said with a big smile on my lips
