AM COMING BACK HOME

Fate sometimes has a way of controlling endings in a soothingly manipulative manner. I knew the day had come when I woke up in a pool of petals. I didn't visit my beloved at the seashore at dawn, as it is my custom, but rather I sat on my bed wondering if what I was experiencing was real. The universe had decided and no one dared to question or rebel. Zeus son didn't blow his horn today to tease me neither, he seemed to have understand the critical occasion and the astrological signs painted in the whole sky. It was time. My whole body was sprouting flowers threateningly covering my whole skin and I knew that this was my last day here. Flowers tend to pronounce death no matter how beautiful they are!! It is time the gods we go back home and the end is here.

Today!

It's 6pm in the evening according to normality but the sky is filled with clouds of smoke and the air isn't fresh anymore. A fragrance of fleeting smoke is choking every creature around. The sun has been raining for the past 72hrs nonstop. Every place is flooding from the heavy rain that has been shinning aggressively. There's a freezing cold that's melting birds and insects. The streets are dead silent from the wails and cries of both humans and animals.

Nothing is normal here!!

Chaos!!

I'm watching all this from the highest rooftop of my grandma's thatched hut. A mug of my favorite ice-cold coffee is burning my little fingers as I flashback that fateful day when the mighty son of Zeus prophesied about this day. His pleas are still fresh in my mind as he warned humans about chaos that would bring an end to their fantasy. Time is fleeting and fantasy is a lying illusion. I remember how he swang his long hair in a swirl as he turned to flow away in fury (his locks almost provoked my dragon - hysterically though).

Time is all we have got and still don't. The said words are now here in a wave, it's just a matter of a blink this tsunami sweeps everything away. If only humans listen.......... I'm staring at my cup trying to admire the lingering taste of my last meal in this human world. I'll miss it for sure. One siren away and my beautiful monster will be here for her master. It's my time to go back to the gods. The son of Zeus said it won't last long, and to be honest, it hadn't even started-(like the witch he is, he has a hobby of casting spells on me anyway - y'all remember that).

I'm going home

I'm going back to my home

I'm going home to my world of flames

To the place where we burn warmly and calm

To the place where we light each other's candle when their lamps run out

To the place where we hug and genuinely hold each other so as no one feels lonely

To the place where my kind dwell and so I won't have to feel different or out of place

To the place where I can shed  the burns and ashes off my skin without being judged

I'm going to my home, where love is love and not just a word

I'm going home to the ones who cherish me

To the souls that love me truly

To the beings that burn incense in my favor

To the true friends who wish the best for me

To the family that raised and prays for me even for ages to come

I'm going back home to my loved ones 

To the people that know the journey from the start

To the ones who never tire to hold my flag up high

To the ones who stay swords ready in case the world smelt trouble

To the ones who really knows me

Im going back home to my family of gods 

I'm going back home to my dear self

To the inner person who's merciful and human

To the little girl who runs to her mother whenever she smells her scent from a distance

To the kind and loving version of me

Nothing is normal anymore here

Every face is clowned and the city is full of masked souls

I don't recognize this place anymore

I don't know what I've become

But one thing is certain....I'm going home

I've never been my dad's princess

I'm my mother's warrior.....and I'm going home

And I'll burn and scorch whatever stands in my way

AM COMING BACK HOME
