1.
I lure you in with a bounty of riches at your feet Never looking up, you do not see danger that awaits I now have you surrounded, my lies, entangling vines My darkness conceals venomous teeth, all the while you sink In the swamp No step is sure Essence of disarray, no reason here I am the Swamp, I own you now In the Swamp, you're meaningless My putrid waters are perfect for dissolving your beliefs The poison sinks in unnoticed, you begin to fade away I leave you in the mud and the moss which you will now become Your intrusion, insignificant to this world of living oblivion Never again behold the sun aglow Decay erasing all indication of your path I am the Swamp, my perils you ignored Existence decomposed, I am the Swamp
2.
You've never known thirst like this before The components for sustaining life are no more Wandering too far, no turning back Slow & meticulous, my attack In the wind, your steps dissipate The fluids in your body evaporate No shelter from the dangers I employ Your Mind, Voice, & Bones I'll destroy Desolation, total eradication Draining, conviction waning Then, as I remove the sun, a bitter cold envelops you Through the night, the same as the day, a cruelty you never knew No shelter for your body, no ease for your mind You've entered the Desert & left the world behind The person you were has been lost to the Sand I've stolen your last breath I am the Desert I am emptiness & death
3.
I tower over all yet I beckon to you I instill fear to challenge your strength To scale my walls, a perilous climb I call to the brave to reach my peak Ascend! Harsh winds, snow & ice Test your will, conquer me! I Am The Mountain! Elevate yourself, sure-footed in your mind Bear the cost of betterment, arise with your eyes Answer me with vigor, a hardiness of nerve Be stronger than the Mountain, an honor you must earn I Am The Mountain!

about

Nature as an analogy for human behavior. The Swamp lies, the Desert abuses, and the Mountain inspires.
