Tunnel



My poem describing depression
Well it does for me

Liveing in a tunnel
Trapped
Never ending
The ocean of sky somewhere hidden above

Sunlight barely existing
One way out
That death, the end
Is waiting somewhere

Somewhere is so far away
Keep walking the path called life
Somewhere is nowhere near
But somewhere is coming sometime

When
Where
Is that end I want
Will a car come take me there

Will someone get me there
Take me to the end
Get me there
Out of here

This dark tunnel
No end ever in sight
No sunlight to let you see
The thought of that beautiful sky above

Everything makes you want to find it
The end
See that sky
Feel that warmth

Just keep walking
Find that end
Keep going
Just walk through that little sunlight that rarely shows up

Keep going
Dont stop
Never stop
Find that end

Its the only way
That end is somewhere
Nothing lasts forever
Not even this dark tunnel called life

Find the sunlight
See that sky
At the end
Its waiting for you

Just keep going
You know you must
Find that easy way
Others have

Find that sky
Even if you can barely keep it
Feel the sunlight
Feel the breeze

Youre free
Youre free
Well,
You were

Welcome to the end
Are you going to find the end of the tunnel now?
It leads to nothing
Cant handle that sky's beauty?
There's was no easy way out

The tunnel just keeps going
Find the end
And it the last thing you'll ever find
You wont see sunlight or even that tunnel again

Clean
Fresh
Air
Couldnt handle it?
No one can
