ice mountain

only a couple of climbers have managed to conquer this mountain. in my opinion, it is the most beautiful mountain in the whole world. it is not only me. many people who live in the same village often talk of its stature and grace.


of the villagers who dare to attempt an ascend to the ice caps, many have often been turned away at the halfway mark by strong winds and the harsh cold. it almost seemed as if the couple of climbers who have managed to conquer the mountain had some sort of divine intervention, as if the mountain had assisted them and protected them through to the top.


i have been in awe of this beautiful mountain ever since i first set my eyes on it. i never really had the courage to climb. i think i am just not fit enough to survive the harsh conditions up there. deep in my heart, i so dearly want to experience the joy, the happiness and satisfaction upon conquering it. im so jealous of the few who have seen the world from the top of the ice mountain.


now that the weather is unsuitable for climbing, the mountain has been cordoned off by the authorities. i find myself pacing up and down at the foot of the mountain. my heart says go, but my mind just can't focus. i never know when it will turn better. i never know if i can ever set foot on the top of the ice mountain.


i think i will wait for you.
