Weakness

And what makes you think I am weak?
Is it that I care?
Is it that I deem it important?
Is it that I take pride in it?
Or stitch it into my heart,
Strings made of sinew and
Sewing needles of hope.
What makes you think,
My mountains are weaknesses?
My obstacles are wounds
Or burdens?
What if instead,
They are the rungs of the ladder I climb?
And what makes you think I am weak?
