I Hurt

I am Mount Everest,
Steep, Up and Downs.
The world around,
walking all over me,
I am of whispers.

A misunderstood mountain,
They pray for safety that I won’t kill them

That cannot help them.
I am not evil,
I am not a killer,

I don’t hurt others for joy.
I act strong and hid in the fog,

But I can’t always hide.
I break, I fall

Avalanches occur from my surface.

I don’t mean to kill

I don’t mean to break,
I’m sorry if you become my victim

I don’t mean it
I am veiled in the clouds and fog

No one knowing how I feel.
You may ask, But I never tell

I may regret not talking, but you don’t get it.
I am misunderstood, I am shown to be strong,

I am called mighty, I am high,
To most I cannot fall.

But no one gets it,
I break, I fall, I hurt
Just as those who climb me,

I feel pain, I suffer

I am a mountain but I do cry

Those storms that some die in,
They blamed them for testing me

I do not mean it
I cannot help if I feel pain
I am me,
I am like you
I have hills to climb,

Life’s a climb, I am a climb
There are steeps to overcome

I may not make it,
I may fall, I will fall

Attempt to get up, May fail

I am not always the strong mountain,

The one others come for help
I need help to,

You may cry to me
I cry away from others, hidden

I show no emotion, I store it
But it explodes, I shatter, I show

the true colors of my feelings
I fall and it may seem like most ignore

There are those who stop and help
I am Mount Everest High and Steep,

I to have to climb,
The Mountain of Life
