Fortress
This rock I must climb
It took years to get the nerve
Around in circles
My time ever purposeful
Scaling the features of regret
I must climb
For the moment is right
Push away the fear
Leave it over there
Once more around this rock
Not waiting one more second
Tick Tock
I begin the climb
And feel the earth in my hands
This journey is not simple
For this mortal man
Once I reach the summit
My future is revealed
Staring at the beauty
The successes I have created
The dreams that have come true
Standing and soaking in
The majestic view
