LOVE’S MOUNTAINTOP

I have a mountain to climb from a valley so low.

It’s a matter of trust, but for love I must go.

Is this mountain worth climbing, is a question I ask.

In my heart I say yes; in my mind, “what a task!”

 

Wow, I never notice, this mountain’s so high!

And, although I know it now, I must give it my best try.

Do I have the strength is the question on my mind.

From what lows to what highs must my poor heart climb?

 

The mountain holds secrets that I yearn to unfold,

But how far dare I go in search of love’s pure gold.

I can quit now, what an easy resolution.

Dare I destroy the rose in the name of a thorn execution?

 

To the core of my soul, you must know I am afraid.

But with all my heart and love, this commitment I have made.

I will climb another step at the start of this new day,

Tomorrow I will do it again, just as I did yesterday.

 

Once again, I may view love from heaven’s mountaintop

But it takes two to love and withstand the devastation if trust is dropped.

I will climb this mountain, conscious of every stick, thorn and stone

With heart wide open and hand reaching out, will you come along.
