The other day, I climbed a mountain,

Its peak stretched out to heaven,

The snow, gracing it with soft beauty,

The clouds kissing it with light despair,

Our paths crossed and it acknowledged me,

A tiny ant that spoke in tongue,

I watched it ache with such deception,

That it knew and actually knew what

It was,

That I was.

 

The heavens grew to higher depths,

The mountain watched but did not care,

The clouds moved on to touch another,

As the snow merely faded,

To a lighter shade of black,

My toes grew warm and I saw it…

Waiting,

My heart pumping the devil's blood,

I turned and sighed in ever-waiting,

As the mountain stared ahead.
