Going Down Towards the Peak
The peak of the mountain seemed so close, but his energies were draining. The sweat on his face, his eyes dead, his body numb and weakened. All his effort had to be worthy. However, he did not remember why he started climbing in the first place. He did not even remember his own name, or if he had any friends or family, what kind of movies or music he liked. What was his favorite color? Did he like chicken salad? Nothing. Nothing but the emptiness in his mind. Nothing but the emptiness around him.
Staggering, he did not even know where to go but he kept pushing. Pushing every bit of his life into that climbing. One hand, up, one hand, up, one hand, up, and another and another. He touched something -- something hard. He couldn't believe it. What was it? He felt as if he had spent a lifetime going up. Was it fair to face some sort of wall? After all this effort?
He continued, embraced the wall. He laid down and rested. He would face that situation later. Later, he would realize it wasn't a wall, but the floor after he went all the way back down.
Welcome to the freewriters! Glad that he made it down :)

Thank you very much. Can I edit my post or should I do it for a next time? @mariannewest
Next time. I don’t think the bots recognize edits
