Mountain Climb
-Read from bottom to up, left to right and help me climb this mountain-
Truly
Rejoice
To be free,
To reach the top
Just allow yourself
You are very strong
I am no longer afraid
Soon I will be at the top
It is so beautiful and bright
The luminous peak is in view
Birds and insects cheering me on
And laugh wholeheartedly as I continue
I recall Mother Abbess from The Sound of Music
By legs began to feel the tire of present but still I go
I can never truly feel alone in this realm of natural green
Alone I climb, accompanied with the music of my tempo-stilled mind
I scramble like a beast, engorging in my own energy and headstrongness
I fear no end of precious time—I certainly fear not the likes of you, you rampart
My head is whirling in the wood—basking in the smells and sights of the enigmas beyond
No rack of irrespirable doubt can dare to bring me down again—I simply, modestly refuse it
I am inwardly confident and free—eyes focused straight up to the flurry, blurry peaks of new
The sun beats down on my flesh—tough, warm love that has supported me from the beginning of time
Without further forbidding thought, I make my way upwards, looking up at the highest mountain in awe
-it may be a little too long at parts, but it DID fit on my microsoft word anyway...xD Enjoy my pyramid/volcano/mountain thing..-
