Climbing

Standing on the precipice of something great

Climbing the crag, reaching for foothold in the rock face
Looking up, peak pierces sparkling sky
Looking down, abyss summons a breach

Teetering, torn, struggling to keep eyes upturned
Fighting temptation to falter into chasm
Life and death dangles in the balance

Future is brilliant
Will the rope snap?
