The mountain in my mind
can I overcome it?
My mind has conjured
Something insurmountable,
But I will prevail.

I like this take on the challenge, very unique, thank you for sharing!
Indeed. Their is no other option but to prevail...
Another amazing work Heather :)
Beautiful and inspiring
Ouu, this is beautiful. I love the power in this poem.❤️
I like the word “insurmountable.” That seems very definite. It’s something you CANNOT overcome. But. You will prevail. I like that.
A very touching and relatable story. 🙂
Wonderful! There is always a path if we just look past our fear.
Wow this says so much Heather. Great work.
I love this. Our anticipation of a challenge is often much bigger than the actual challenge.
Insurmountable. That is a word to use, for sure. When the thoughts get too dark or hard to overcome, it often feels like we are being weighed down. The point driven forward is the fact that, even at those moments when things are difficult, we will rise. We will overcome.
Very strong and to the point. History is written by victors, is the poetry the same?
This was great. An excellent and inspirational take on the challenge!
I LOVE this! Three super powerful words: conjure, insurmountable, prevail - YES! So inspiring :) Amazing!
If alludes but doesn’t name ‘ mountain ‘ subtle and strong
This is so strong!
Yes! Love the confidence and inspiration in this one.
