Heights

 

Heights:

It’s easier to fall

Than it is to ascend,

To lose it all

a bitter end

 

I care not for the soil

I crave the clouds

Fates plan foiled

my victory cried aloud

 

I’ll make the rivers still

And split the sky

I’ll climb the tallest hill

And like Icarus, fly

 

I’m not afraid to fall,

To reach higher - to feel

Nothing

A dreadful ordeal

 

A single goal is all I see

I want to be

 

The best

 

Of the best of the best.

 

And should I reach my final peak

I’ll peacefully sit upon my throne

And know my destiny was never bleak
