Ambition Relented

Impossibly high mountain peaks hung over head humbled egos gave way to bigger dreams so it seemed, but never thoughts of victorious laurels Were so impossible we didnt wet our lips for sweeter wine This sky so vast we may never know its grasp but come full ready to chance a stab at this task Ambition relented with excuses abound Age brings apprehension, not just wisdom wisdom never a suit of card in your hand A self wrought ceiling to suffocate flying but hopes dying in that vastness we refuse to know
