TO BE A MOUNTAIN
TO BE A MOUNTAIN
To be a mountain ?
Is too some, a life personified
Embodying the characteristic, of a mountain
Their volume of insecurity is larger than life.
They need the allusion of strength
For solitude , because a value of self worth is buried in pride
To be a river?
Is freedom too some
Flowing without boundaries.
The truth will not confine them
To face the lies, that they have become
To be a bird?
With wings of flight
Some would betray their own soul
Their incarceration of being bound to earth , a body
Will be left behind
