There are no mountains without earthquakes

Tell me about your earthquake

Tell me what caused you to become a majestic mountain

Holding your head high

Yet as humble as the earth of which you are made of

The challenges of our lives 

Like earthquakes

Disrupt the normal state of affairs

They reshape the landscape of our spirit 

With a thunderous roar

They destroy the structures present

But in their wake

Arise magnificent mountains

A testament to the pain of destruction

And the rise of new formations
