This Poem was inspired by the song Eye of the Tiger by Survivor. Once again, one big metaphor. Anyway... Here it goes:
At The Top
By WaterDragonRider
Here I am
Standing at the top
The first war finally over.
Here I am
Standing at the top
Wiser and older.
Here I am
Standing tall and proud
As I stare at the scenery before me.
Bright shining lights,
Some trees small green dots
In the distance.
Here I am
At the top
Wondering why it had to stop.
The thrilling rush of
Running through my home
As the war raged on around me.
Here I am
At the top.
One war may be over
But, the next has just begun.
A new war,
That will start soon.
After I feel the thrill of joy.
The war will start,
I will be hurt.
But, no longer short,
No longer naive.
Here I am
Standing at the top.
Having a voice as loud
As a lion's rawr
And a soul as bright as the sun.
Ready to face the next battle,
As I stand at the top,
Knowing this is the big stop,
Before I'm off on my own,
Laughing, falling in love,
And constantly working.
Here I am
At the top
And the next war will
Only take me higher from here.
