I Am Coming
I can see and hear success
And I am coming
Like a runner in the Olympics who is striving for gold
As I leap over the hurdles, one by one, at lightening speed
That will set a new world record
Then you will know
I am coming
Like a soldier on a horse on a battlefield
Who could hear the sounds of the brass trumpet
As I raise my sword and scream the infamous words “Charge!”
Then you will know
I am coming
Like a great vessel in the treacherous seas
That clashes against the dark monstrous waves with great impact
A vessel larger than the Titanic
But has not sunken
And reads the U.S.S. Conquest
Then you will know
I am coming
Like a train that is built strong like a locomotive
Whose engine is powerful
But has a unique shape, as it will blind you by its reflection
Of its luminous body
Traveling at the speed of a silver bullet
Then you will know
I am coming
Like a stealth jet in the sky, that travels at Mach speeds
And surpasses the sound barrier with a great sonic “Boom!”
Then you will know
I am coming
Like a rocket that only travels in a vertical direction
As it burns its JP5 like a great monster
That shadows the ground below
But also displays colors of bright red and blue
That blend in with the beauty of the sky
As you hear its thunderous roar, as it soars passed great altitudes
And as it reaches the top and peels away from the earth’s atmosphere
Then you will know
I am coming
