Ascension
Crystal blue ice cold water
at the glaciers edge
As I traverse the ridgeline, climbing closer,
just one more little ledge
My path is wrought with obstacles,
many burdens in my way
I focus my energy, higher still,
I will reach the peak today
Once the summit is reached, I sit alone
and bask in the icy glow
Confident that I did it myself,
for me and not the show
As I climb back down from my success,
my goal being achieved
I know in my heart that I can do this
for which I am relieved
