Everyone tells me they're so proud of me,
that all that I want is within my reach;
then why does it feel like my dreams are
slipping away?
It's like trying to drink from a cup made of
my hand...

But they know that no matter what,
I'll keep on climbing, keep trying
but let me tell you this my friends:
it feels like this mountain is growing right
under my feet
And the top was already so far up that it
was buried in the clouds.
This actually is more like a song than a poem to me, but you can't really have music on here, and even if you could no amount of dA popularity would make me sing, haha.

In other news, I'm getting very excited about the projects I have in mind for dA, especially the novellas and my December short story. :) I think this is going to be a fun semester.

Oh, and my first novel's editing is going quite well (though I am procrastinating right now...), though my desolation over it's "awful awfulness" was what made me write this poem in the first place.
