Trapped inside,
controlled
morally postponed.
I wait.
Not going out,
The fear creating doubt,
I resist, it grows.
I wait.
Letting go of it all
trusting in the uncomfortable fall,
to freedom.
I wait.
Open your mind,
your heart
and your soul,
watch, exposed
as life can now unfold.
Now, able to do,
without having to know the clue.
I climb.
Pushing through the mental pain,
see it strengthened by my physical gain.
I climb.
Terrified at the top,
wanting for it all to stop.
I climb.
As I push through,
Unaware of what I was able to do
I climb.
Shaking with fear,
no longer from within,
pushing on once again,
I climb.
Empowered by a passion,
Without any room for doubt,
I climb.
I grow.
I win again.
