Climb

Never easy
dig your heels in
deep
pull harder
up the
climb

Far away
Shines a
Star
Longing for
Home

Reaching
Grasping
For a far off
Peak
Of warmth

Sun shines
Above
Trees recede
Into the
Distance

Feel the
Ache
The burn
Push past
It

Edges
Scrape
Tear
Leaving only
Spirit to
Preside


Tingling cold
Freezing
All but
Heart


I see the
Top
Feel myself pull
Up
Onto the
Peak

I smile
There's another
Mountain
Ahead of
Me
