MoUNTAIN DRoP

`~ MoUNTAIN DRoP~

I want to be like the mountain top.  
The higher I go, the less room I have to stop. 
A moment to think~ a moment to slow. 
With one look down!  
I release my breath and let it flow. 
My fallen star has hit the ground. 
Life's deepest thoughts will never be found. 
When no ones around! 
I will allow myself to drown,
only when the world brings me down. 
 
I want to take that key! 
Turn it around, and get lost in that moment only I see. 
I want to lose my soul!
I am ready to go!
I am ready to look! 
Ready to fall!
Ready to leave!
Leave it all! 
 
Jumping off the edge when I hit rock bottom. 
Or, should I continue my lies 
and pretend  to be the best in every ones eyes! 
The best to climb the mountain top. 
Reaching for them stars in the skies 
The best~never to look down. 
The best will never be good enough for me. 
While I am around...

~~ SKAT ~~

    This is a very interesting one to read, SKAT. I love the line where you said "the higher I go, the less room I have to stop" It's obvious and yet so profound! Very enjoyable and HI back to you. LUv, Andrea

    When we go up the mountain there is always a valley on the other side that we have to enter before we start to climb the next higher mountain..Good work with much thought put into the work...I am glad that I chose it to read today...I was delighted that you stoppped by my Ottava Rima ..That is the first one that I wrote I think...Totally fictional work..Sara

    Ah so this is the mountain poem that you mentioned-- I think it's pretty cool how you want to be like a mountain--& this made me think as well I guess sometimes we also do pretend to be the best and it can be tiring sometime but hmm we can't please everybody--I'm sure though that we have facets of ourselves wherein we can be the best---ack I am babbling here- sorry I guess I better go back to my mountain of chocolate--hugs!! nikko :)
