Achieve the Climb
pumping red rivers
traveling through tiny tunnels
of life ticking away
slowly stirring
yielding a promise known but unseen
many hope to survive to see
yet scared to know
the truth it holds
bending, stretching
hold out your hand
open your heart
believe in the future of your soul
overcome, jump those hurdles
reach out, grab but don't let go
of your love for God and Jesus
of your love for every little thing
meant to be
step aside for avalanches
then continue to climb
to achieve your soul's purpose
live the life
meant to be real -
a life lived with love and kindness
a life with God and Jesus
