This poem is about going down the path we know will be hard, but there is always a way through it. A nice metaphor. Hope you enjoy.


Dark gray clouds spread across the sky Blocking out the sun And my path leads through a dark tunnel

One would often think it foolish To go down dark tunnels Especially one you've been down before

But I see a light at the end of this tunnel

No one else can see the light that I do They all tell me to turn back, Stay away from the tunnel.

I know that I may regret my decision. Many will call me a fool, And they could be right.

But I'm drawn to that light Like a moth to a flame And I'm hoping I don't get burned.

Even with hope, I'm afraid; And in the face of fear and doubt, All one can do is try.

I will go down this tunnel of darkness; For I see a light.

Poem #86: The End of the World

_The End of the World_ Walking down the hard sidewalk While it's pouring down rain Holding the umbrella tight, holding it close Shivering because it's cold You're waiting for the sun to come out You know it has to, it has to come out again...
