Mi ángel
I am trapped in your love stare

You’re an undistressed damsel
Confident to take on the world
Your dreams within your reach

Everywhere you twirled
Swirled precious quotes you preach
Inspiring those that follow you

Mi linda mariposa
Your wings sparkle as you flew
Nuestro vínculo es lo más hermosa
Love always brings us back to what we do best :) M&M

Chest up, palms back. Set
Pose. Reset.
Painted amongst clouds -
To prove it.

A summit awaits. We
Tell ourselves whilst fixed
Fast on phones. Hold on,
Set. Pose.

Reset.
Continuing on, through silent
Pain, undistressed. Taking in - like the rest
****, schlock and schtum.

Reaching up. Holding on. Feet slip
Beneath
Loose ground
Heavily worn, trodden down.

Grip failing. Boots torn.
Gripping tighter.
Hanging now.
Reset.

Pose.
Set.
Point. Click. Check.
Reset.

Continue on like before.
Laugh off the failings and forlorn.
Make choices to which them will warm.
Set.  Pose.  Reset. Time and time again.

Back down we go.
A poem about three mountains
