And as you stand
And look out far
The air thick
The wind in your hair

1000 meters
above sea level
Thoughts spilling out
Words that revel

Each step amidst
the spiritual grasp
Words not coming
A tear, a gasp

Closeness to heaven
Is so clear
Nothing to fight
Nothing to fear

Just a moment of time
In which you breathe
Relinquish your fears
Your soul unsheathed

The glory of nature
The wonders of the world
Insignificant we are
The future, behold
LH Jan 2020
To take that step
You bare your soul
Ready for rejection
Vulnerability taking hold

To take that step
You steel yourself
Ready for acceptance
Love thyself

To take that step
You make a transition
Acceptance, rejection
What’s the decision

But to not to take that step
To not be vulnerable
Keeps you safe
Leaves you comfortable

To not take the step
A life stagnates
Lack of fulfilment
Stalemate
LH Jan 2020
And then here it came
In a colossal wave
Not passion, not anger
But a darkened cave
A power so vociferous
Th emotion ‘indifference’

— The End —
