In a tunnel dark and deep With no sign of life You see the light at the end of it Yet I fail to
The Devil had placed his hands upon my eyes His hollow eyes sending chills down my spine For all I see are faults Of every single thing that I’ve done
It was a pit cold and damp My soul struggles to break free There was no flicker of hope There was nothing I could see
The world ripping apart strand by strand I endure to live With these battle scars But in this broken world I must strive
The sky was grey and still Humming with no thrill The rainbow on the other side never came And who am I to blame?
As I hang on to the last strands of life A feeling of dread and sorrow wash over The Fifer blows a haunting melody on his fife My last glimpse of the world as love to its lover
I wrote this poem in seventh grade, and remembered being very proud of it. I know it's far from being my best work, but if it were not for this piece, I would not be here today.
