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.
