I tried
I tried the best I could
But I couldn't last
I couldn't make it through
And for that I am only slightly sorry
Because it was a huge relief for me
I couldn't take it any longer
My tunnel had been struck and there was no longer light at the end of it
It was now a cave
And there was only one way out and that was not a physical way
But I had to do what was best for me
Or what I thought was best for me
Because I couldn't find another way out
I had looked and looked and searched and searched
But alas I couldn't find a way out
I was stuck
And I was in a dark cave
All by myself

No one had decided to join me on my trek
I asked around
But no one seemed interested
And the ones who did pay attention
Weren't interested

So here I am
Alone in this cave
With no way out
I need to do what is best for me
I can't keep living like this:
All alone and scared and most certainly afraid of the future and what lies ahead of me presently
But do not worry
Because I have a simple solution and you won't have to worry about me anymore
(not like you did at all before)
