The
Mountain
by Toby C
of dawn, which meant I
had reached the top of the
mountain where the dark
and light side met.
I could have a picnic! I could
make a daisy chain! The light
has come to me and filled me
with positivity. I’m free! I never
want to leave this place.
I still have to walk the
distance between here and
the light side, I’m not quite
there yet, it’s so long I can’t
make it. The rocks are closing
in on me, what’s happening?
What’s happening? My mind
is being pulled apart. The
light side is running away
from me. I have to make it.
The branch of positivity
reached back to me.
I can! I can make it! And I
leapt, and collapsed.
I’ve done it! I’ve out-run the
dark side, but it’s chasing me.
I’m still on the run, but I’m in
the lead, but not for long.

I have my own house on the
light side of the mountain
and I’m still running. The dark
side will catch me some day.
