These past few weeks have had me thinking I hadn’t done anything right.<\/p>\n
Friends, partners and associates, alike had me questioning if the path I was on, was the right flight.<\/p>\n
I, who had love for everyone, couldn’t understand-<\/p>\n
This abandonment that came from no where, yet seemed orchestrated and planned.<\/p>\n
Great care was taken as every detail of my demise was checked off and executed with great precision.<\/p>\n
A lesser man would have succumb to your withdrawl-<\/p>\n
Started feening for your affections<\/p>\n
Like a slave in chains begs to be free and an addict clamors for the next fix…<\/p>\n
But wisdom is more powerful than all that.<\/p>\n
And He used this very thing to grab my attention-<\/p>\n
Where once it was had, he failed not to mention<\/p>\n
All the places I was going and the success I am destined to be.<\/p>\n
He reminded me that those I had once held in high esteem had to leave<\/p>\n
For this next level, had no room for the haters who used to keep me company.<\/p>\n
I am a shining star, getting ready to shoot out of this galaxy<\/p>\n
So to those that thought me a flower, who would whither and die<\/p>\n
Here is a chair. Pull one up.<\/p>\n
Have several seats.<\/p>\n
And enjoy the feast<\/p>\n
Prepared especially for you.<\/p>\n
You’re in for a special treat<\/p>\n
So get ready to see how your hate and disdain has become the fuel that makes me great.<\/p>\n
And remember this Queen doesn’t cower to whispered conferences held behind backs or chambers I’ve not been invited in.<\/p>\n
I guess only one of us knows what it is to be called this and lives by it’s TRUE definition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
