I've walked down this tunnel for too long
It's not getting any lighter ahead
Is this tunnel worth traveling?
Should I have even begun?
My head is pounding from the tears
I long to shed
but must hide.
There is no rest for the mind-
days flow together,
the numbers are lost.
I am lost.
I am torn.
I am confused.
No matter where I turn
The pain finds a way
to find me.
There is no safe hold;
I rely on the darkness to hide in
I depend on ignorance to sink away.
What hope is there in this kind of world?
The tunnel won't end soon enough
The light is too far away.
My feet ache
I am too weary.
I'll make my own end.
