the mountain
every step i take
i’m closer to you
the way i feel you
see me
as if looking through
piercing…
did you know
you are the mountain
i intend to climb
and reach?
…after all
you are the one who
taught me
how to whisper

Very interesting correlation; the mountain and love, then the whisper.

thanks, yes mountains whisper too… any goal you have whispers to you inside as you climb up to reach it
