Overbearing the distance
Struggling to climb it but stuck
with the pain in my legs from the work of just keeping on moving
It is not easy
Breathing, hurting, aching in the
starlight
Night and day
There is brimstone and rock
before me
Pain will stay
Look up, look off at the sun
Receive the light
Suddenly, slowly, peaks are
crowned, and difficulties fade
Rocks fall off of my back
New life in my legs
Weakness and joy overcome me
I fall to my knees
