A King's View
October 18, 2015
I’m hanging on, in pain, but tight,
Hugging the cliff, unstable,
The peak, my goal, within sight,
Yet I stay in the mountain’s cradle.
They are truly dragging me down,
F***, they are so damn heavy,
Even razor wind cannot drown,
Their crowded voices, so many.
Should I simply, just let go?
Let the voices just engulf me?
And watch my goal from below,
Oh, how simple that would be.
With Hell below and sky above, I grasp the mountain’s top,
And with ease I can tell you, I’m so damn glad I did not drop.
