The End of The Climb

A jarred back
Twisted knee
Not the injury of nightmares
The injury of age

What am I doing here?
Replaced by “I don’t belong”
Am I doing this because I feel I should?
Rather than for enjoyment, no longer there

Tempus fugit
The end of the climb
When risk outweighs reward
When obligation increases gravity

If the why becomes self identity
Then self identity may need to change
Life is too short
Happy or right, rather than neither.
