Life's Tunnels (Don't Cut The Trip Short)
Posted: Thursday, June 25, 2009

In life's many tunnels there's always a light,
For some it is dim and for some it is bright,
Some tunnels are short and some tunnels are long,
Don't cut the trip short, for that would be wrong.But some say they're tired of living in pain,
They say life is hard and they can't take the strain,
But what are the choices? Be here or be gone,
When one chooses death there's a break in the song.
We all suffer loss and a few never heal,
But you are important, though your tunnel be dark,
Find someone to talk to, don't give up your spark.
In life's many tunnels there's always a light,
Though yours may be dim and others are bright,
The light in your tunnel is there just for you,
Keep your eyes on the light and you will get through.

I don't think I know any million dollar words. lolAnd I'm glad my poems are easy to understand. One thing that I don't like is reading a poem and trying to figure out what has just been said.
