Inner Strength Must Be Found
It's a long journey
Tracking through 2 feet of hardened snow
Sun so brilliant it shows no mercy
Cliffs that fall 100s of feet below
Every step is weighted and exhausting
Glaring peaks and freezing canyons
It is hard to now where you are , at times its distorting
Weeking from very low rations
Struggle and strive are hand in hand
I'm almost to the top
If there's a town that would be grand
Hoping for a easy drop
A few feet more
Thank God, can't take on another day
Every inch tired and sore
Here we go, the top
My eyes nervous but looking
My entire body collapses on the hillop
At this point I now know as I'm shaking
I'll lay myself down and surrender
I decide to let the mountain consume me
No place more beautiful in all its splender
I vowed a "I will survive"decree
When all was lost and the plane was veering rapidly towards the ground
But guessing not as strong as I thought
I'll wait to be found
I wake up to the cold ice chips on my cheek
I look around at the lonely hills
Decide I'm not feeble and week
I stand and my body gets the chills.
I won't die here , like this , not now
I have a whole world waiting for me to return home
I will keep going one foot in front of the other and wipe the sweat fromy brough
I will keep fighting ....what's that?? A Drone??
I'm saved
I made it through
Many lost , names I'll engrave
"I'll never forget you " I wave
