Overnight Celebrity

Some who claim they know me,

Because they know a member,

Of my large family will soon wish,

They had taken the time out ,

To communicate with me,

Because soon and very soon,

Possibly before the light of the moon,

I will be a massive celebrity.

 

Then they will wish they have spent.

Some time  to talk to me instead of ,

Talking to others, sisters, and brothers,

Doing a third-party dissertation on me,

Instead of actually seeking yours truly

Some who worked with me in the past,

Will be sad that they would look at me,

And not speak.

 

 They would wish that,

They would at me take more than a peak.

Some who said I wouldn't make it to see

Any of my books sale will be shocked,

To the tee when they see me become

An overnight celebrity.

 

My name will be upon the best

My writings will affect the lives

Of many, many, many nations.

I will be known as a multitalented,

Multifaceted, virtous, sensation.

Many will give me standing me

Standing ovations. Instantly

I will go in your eyes from being

A nothing to something

From worthless to the best.

 

But for nothing I will be able

To stick out my chest

God had this planned for me

Way before the mark

Of any century

This is my destiny

You have to seek Him

First, trust Him fully,

Stop hating on people,

And stop being a bully

And you'll get to do your opus

And  serve your divine purpose.

And right before some moon light

Verily, verily, and surely,

You'll become a celebrity.
