Huh. What an interesting piece.
First off, I love your title. It's catchy, and extremely interesting. It drew me to the piece, like what does it mean exactly?
Your opening stanza is captivating to me. You portray one's life in one simple verse. The mountains that we climb ... We reach the top when we reach the peak of our lives. When you end with one walking away, you don't say which one. And it's absolutely great, the way you leave the reader questioning.

`Stunning imagery! This actually made me want to become a better person ... I'm heavily scarred across my forehead, and I have a more severe version of keratosis pilaris on my legs, so I'm always insecure, but this line just ... inspirational to me. Beautiful wording.
I find that your ending could've been stronger, but nonetheless, I really liked this piece.
