Hidden From Me

by JJ Johnson

In my mind, climbing the highest mountain
looking around at the wondrous sights
feeling as if I have achieved the greatest of heights
for a moment, feeling complete

Swirling clouds drift away
revealing a higher mountain unseen before
one that reaches into the heavens
so high the peak remains obscured

I want to go there
I want to see what it looks like
I want to know what has remained hidden from me
I want to feel what I have never felt before
