Get back up when you've fallen down
and remember where you found that hole in the road
And set your sights right where you want to go
Allow yourself to break
so you can then heal
after seeing the world with broken bones and broken hopes
Then push through your bandages and your bonds that hold you back
And fight until you collapse
Then rest
And then, while your muscles are still aching
Pick up your body and will yourself forward
And battle again
And continue climbing until the top of the mountain
Your picture is rad
ReplyDeleteI like the use of the spacing at places of the stanza.
ReplyDeleteI like the metaphor about climbing the mountain.
