Poetry by Chris P.

I walked up the mountain once with my lover

I walked up the mountain once with my lover
We went for a swim in the river
Tis where it all began
where it all began

I walked up the mountain once with my lover
We took shelter under a tree
Tis where it all began
where it all began

I walked up the mountain once with my lover
We hid scared by the thunder
Tis where it all began
where it all began

I walked up the mountain once with my lover
We got lost in the storm
Tis where it all began
where it all began

I walked down the mountain without my lover
He was never seen again
Tis where it all began
Where it all began.

I walked up the mountain once at night
I prayed to Odin and his kin
Bring him back
Bring him back

I live on the mountain now with my lover
We hide in the trees like children
Tis forever so
forever so
