UNMASKED
Obstacles hitherto perplexing
mountains steep, towering, daunting.
Ahead wearisome on
Each stride, step an effort
sure footed not.
On rocks and stones I stumble, I fall, I sob.
Driving force worthiness prove,
Headlong trudge journey on,
Ascending the zenith threateningly distant,
a labyrinth voyage pessimistic laden.
Fractured thoughts deprive abating endurance,
my existence hence.
