Goal, everyone has a goal they strive for,

Something which they want to conquer,

May it be material or immaterial,

They give it their heart and soul,

I also had one of those goals,

I wanted to climb all those ladders and steps,

Which surround our city where people are happy and prosperous,

Some old texts prevented us from climbing those old steps towards skies,

I wasn’t happy with my life in the city,

It was only adventure which I’d take seriously,

Those steps posed a challenge to the thrill seeker in me,

I secretly started ascending the steps while everyone were asleep,

And was out of everyone’s eye shot by the next morning,

It took me days and days to conquer that mighty thing,

As I went high, I was losing my possessions and patience,

The thrill of discovery is what kept me go through all the trouble,

As I went high, I saw many remains human and animal,

As I went through my quest, the pursuit felt abysmal,

After I conquered the stairs as I ascended those last ones with all my might,

I saw only sand in my sight.
