The Steo

She looked down her feet ,

And she could hear her heart skip a beat .

It was something new,

She‘d knew ,

Since the moment she had stepped on it .

She had gone through a lot and seen a lot ,

And her life had been a rolling stone .

She told herself “it’s alright “

But people said it wasn’t.

She closed her eyes and prayed

The lord for his mercy ,

She knew that her words were sharper than the knife.

People mocked her but

She had known that before.

All it took her was a step ahead and

She immediately knew that she was on the top

Of the worlds highest peak!

It wasn’t a mountain or plateau

That she had climbed over ,

She had climbed over the mountain that she had within her .

Now , she is a bird flying high in the sky ,

Through the clouds and upon the oceans ,

Able to reach the actual peaks .

Years later, she fondly remembers fondly

Of the step she had chosen to take ,

Not with a support but on her OWN ....
