I Am A Mountain

It is hard to be the mountain all the time....

I am mountain.. stand on me..
I will never let you fall..
I will help you through it all..
There is no obstacle to big or small
I am rock .. strong as can be..
Come tell me your problems..
Let the telling
set you free..
Let your tears run over me...
Never worry..
I will always be here..
I would never let you down
Never fear..
Now I am a stone..
Come rest your head on me..
Tell me what bothers you..
As you look into the blue skies above..
Do not worry
I will help you love..
Ahhh
But now I am pebble..
Just a speck in the sea..
I have been worn down
by the years of troubles and tears
cried upon me..
but I do not complain..
I am what I am meant to be..

ERICA..

This is a great write Erica! It takes a special person to be looked upon as a mountain for others to lean on. I am sure you are one of those special few.

Erica, you are what you were meant to be. You are not the mountain, I am the mountain and I want you to stand at the very top of my peak and be the wonderful poet you show now in your poetry. You get better and better every day. When you firey soul begins another day with a song in its heart. Bill Murray

Erica,
Very inspiring write, to speak in the "I Am", rather then the "I'm" is very empowering in itself, this write goes beyond poetry into the "Affirmation" category! I enjoyed it very much!

Hugs,
Maria
