Summits

Some mountains are high enough!

There were
no more steps
to take

nor summits
left to climb

in the
‘glorious’ quest
for your love

I had
run out
of ways

to show you
just how much
I loved you;

just how much
I saw forever
in you.

Love is never fair or kind. And sometimes very unrewarding. But we hunger for that sweet taste, nonetheless.

And may we find it, no matter how long it takes!
