Mountains Will Not Move

This perilous tug of war must cease My hands are burnt and weary From grasping a rope That must be relinquished I have attempted to supersede An immovable mountain My back has begun to ache This realization is eminent No longer can I attempt to change Truly what is out of range For I have clung desperately To an illusion, for which There is no chance of being a reality You are Molded into a wax Initiated by personal fears From which you will not depart I extended my deepest aspirations out to you Upon a fine silver platter Only to receive an untouched plate Your eyes are closed To a narrow mind which is Unable to contain a bothered spirit Overly consumned with self-loathing However, There was a brief moment I witnessed the door slightly ajar So did you Abrupty, it slamned violently shut (pause) So much time has elapsed Too many heartbreaking efforts Nonetheless, I do not accept defeat Instead, an invaluable lesson is earned I can not change someone else Only myself for the better Now, A butterfly is suddenly born As a breath of freash air soars within Charred hands will now start to heal As the pain starts to peel If a mountain will not move Then stop attempting what was all ready inevitable Remember you are the most important individual By realizing what can be changed Their feet remain grounded in the cement While mine, stand at the start of a new journey With this new train of thought, I can all ready see the grey clouds have been lifted And the weight form my heart and mind as well What once kept my blinded Has become crystal clear You can't change someone else Only yourself, so move onward..........................................................
