Mountain
I feel frozen in place
with a mountain before me
there is no way around,
I must scale it to move forward
Refusing to believe that I CAN”T
I take a step
reaching forward
clasping the impossible
When I have a foothold
and a grip
I continue to move
because moving is winning
Feeling like I will never
conquer the task
will not move me forward
so I advance out of sheer will
Knowing that I will not be free
until I do either succeed
or fail is motivation
to keep moving forward and upward
I have no idea what I am doing
but I am no longer frozen in place
the more that I move forward
peace embraces me

I’m not sure what you had in mind while writing this, but it made me think about how simply facing a new day sometimes feels nowadays.
Hope you successfully climb every mountain 🙂
I can relate to the sentiment “moving is winning.” Lovely poem!
