Her Climb
She sinks as she swims
Head barely above water
She falls as she walks
Knees scraped and bruised
Her confidence waning
Her hope out of reach
Happiness gone away
Life now unbearable
There are too many mountains
She hasn’t been able to climb
Constant uphill battles to conquer
Failing over and over again
She wants to make the mountains move
She wants to make the journey end
She wants to fight the despair
She wants to destroy the doubt
Hope is a light in the darkness
Darkness is conquered in battle
The battle is everyday life
Life is her daily climb
