Author: Lost

A cliff on a mountain bears the burden of holding up the sky, but if that’s true, who bears the burden of holding the mountain up? Does the mountain hold itself up?Without support
—What holds up the mountainDoes the mountain just crash under the weight of the sky, or does it stand firm on the ground it was once made ofSome reason the sky feels like its falling, suffocating the mountain with its weight–Then I have to ask, if the mountain moves, will the weight of the sky move with it, or will it crush the ground the mountain was made onSure, rocks will fall
—but it’s just rocks, so
To whom does it matterThey might fall into the river, but to whom does it affectWill the ripple affect the fish
—but the fish don’t see the mountain
So will the ripple be that bigWill It beIgnored,
Overseen,I mean, this rock can’t possibly create that big of an effectThere seem to be two koi fish in the river, swimming in circles, a life worth chasing. If the mountain moves and rocks fall, will their happiness be disturbed? Will they stop swimming? The weight of the sky looks like it feels too heavy,So what
If
The mountain stops holding up the skyThe mountain will be destroyed
Rocks will fall in the river, and the fish will stop swimming in circlesBut the mountain will be free, and it can stretch, so it'll feel freer, so maybeIt should want to—
Wait—Where is the mountain? Was it ever here? Where did it go?Was it always in the river?Is this what I've seen– what I've been chasingA weightless burden
A last chapter
A final pageWait, what happened to the fish in the river? Did they stop swimming? Did I create a ripple big enough?Wait, but big enough for what? What do I hope to get from this"It doesn't matter anymore; this breeze breaks the tension, and for the first time, the sky is out of my reach, as if its running away from me."
