climb and crumple
the mountain peak that oversees the valley calls me
challenging me to show up and with my own eyes see
so I climb that spire and stare off in wonder
as I bellow the ground around me sunders
when the Earth below splits I fall to the fire
landing in front of her body burning in the pyre
challenging me to show up and with my own eyes see
so I climb that spire and stare off in wonder
as I bellow the ground around me sunders
when the Earth below splits I fall to the fire
landing in front of her body burning in the pyre

I can feel your empty sadness permeate... it's all about the emotion, imo... nicely penned and a great first poem.
I can't wait to see what else is in store..

Feels like someone who had hope once and lost it. This is a pretty solid first share. Welcome to DUP.

Welcome to DUP. I love the imagery and always love pyre. Not sure why exactly. :) You captured that hopeful climb so well, and also the fall equally well. Can really feel the emptiness and sadness.
This one hurts deep. There is a rise (love) and fall (death)... long story short I will never get that triumph. I appreciate the welcome.

Don'tcha wish sometimes that our grief could be burned away like dross on molten metals?

That's hard. Hate to hear of your tragedy. I do wish I could just sit somewhere and just converse for a moment if a literal moment.
