The Tunnel - Poem

[yellowhorde]

Don't ask me about this one. The date on the paper says it was written in the autumn of 1990. It's a bit bizarre and I can't properly recall what in the Hell I was thinking when I did this one. All I can say is that I am SO GLAD I am no longer in High School. I can honestly say that those years were NOT the best years of my life. College was much better. *^-^*


THE TUNNEL


Can you see the light?
The light at the end of the tunnel?
Can you hear the voices?
Laughing, crying, screaming
Dying
Fading
Taunting, growing louder
Reaching out in darkness
Running for the light
Feel them near
So far away
Touching nothing
Seeing no one
The light blows out

Trapped.
