Mountain Poem by Martin Holm Sjölin

Mountain



He stands and looks up.
He can not believe that he has too climb that mountain again.
What if he falls again?
Is there another waiting for him then?
Or is this the last one?

He starts too climb.
In the beginning it's easy.
He jumps from rock to rock and the feeling that he's invincible hits him.
Then out of nowhere a question comes up in his head.

Why? Why do I climb this mountain again?
Haven't i already been showed that it can't be done?
No. I must try one last time.

And he jumps.
And wishes that somebody will catch him if he falls.

But it's too late.
