PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I stood on top of the mountain

and looked down below

all my friends were shouting

but I felt I had to grow

There were others upon this mountain

but they all felt better than the rest

than I realised that this mountain

was a different kind of test

The winners were at the bottom

the ones who accepted themselves

and down below they rejoiced

while the ones on top got cold

too arrogant to accept the warmth of others

too cocky to start the decent

I again looked down at my true brothers

and started to repent

and I realised that true happiness won't be acquired

until I finish my decent
