The Climb

I move forward
The peak looms larger
Just within reach,
but still further.
The climb steep,
the path treacherous
and a battle rages inside.
The heart wills, says
"Go... Grab your destiny".
Mind pulls back says,
"Leave..There is a next chance".

As I ponder,
time seems to have stalled.
In this valley of hope,
the silence is mortifying.
The cold seeps through,
chilling to the bone.
A Push is all I need,
but nothing is forthcoming,
a helping hand is a farfetched dream.
The wailing winds carry a message
"Onwards... Your Destiny awaits."

Now...
There is no turning back.
A deep breath,
an almighty heave,
and the step is forward..
