Pinnacle



A task is put before me, to climb that mountain, to reach that pinnacle of peaks, to reminisce of the adventure, to claim that fountain of youth in reality is meek.

The task is hard a challenge for many and of course no easier for me, though I struggle I swear I will fulfill my destiny and on top is where I will be.

But obstacles are there to get me off track to question my will to succeed, but head strong I am there’s no turning back, attainable the top is indeed.

And once I am there I take a look back to the course which almost claimed my defeat, I stand high and proud on this mountain top today because my task is complete.
