I am Climbing

I am Climbing

A Poem by Nathan Betterman

 

I am climbing
To the top
Of the mountain.
 
I strain and
I fight and
I cry, too.
 
But, now there,
I see only
Dark, blinding clouds.
 
I look, and
I break, and
I scream, “WHY?”

 
And the echoes,
WHY, Why, why…
They return, whispers...
 
“Don’t lose hope.
I love you.
I am here.”
 
Down on knees,
Head low, humbled,
Reaching for You.
 
I stand only
For You, only
Through You, only.
 
My Shield, Father,
My Staff, Son,
My Strength, Spirit.
 
To you be
All true glory
Amen, again Amen.
