The Light At The End of The Tunnel

-

Where am I in this dark endless tunnel?
Am I still even alive?
I do not know.
Is there a light?

I wander alone and afraid of the monsters in the dark
They whisper and pull me towards them
I feel my resolve weakening and I cry out:
“Where is the light at the end of this tunnel?!”

I am almost consumed by the darkness
‘You are alone” the voices whisper and I start to believe them
Will the whispers go away?
Where is the light at the end of this tunnel?

There! The precious light!
Oh how the warmth warms my face
It chases the darkness and the whispers away from me
It reaches out a welcoming hand and says in a still small voice

“Welcome Daughter, welcome home”
I run into the welcoming arms of the light at the end of this tunnel of life and cry out
“Thank you, thank you!” The light smiles and embraces me
“You have made it to the end of the tunnel, you are home”

    I really love how you put that it seems like you're in an endless tunnel, but there is still light.

Sometimes things change Sometimes those we love cross the Rainbow Bridge It’s always sad As if a part of our hearts have went with them We all have to leave at some point But leaving doesn’t mean goodbye That includes you I will always remember you I will keep you in my heart I will remember everything I have shared All those moments that spanned over your lifetime I hope you can see me from your place in the white clouds above I hope you will greet me when it’s my time to leave this mortal life So I want you to know, before I let you go I love you with all my heart and will always remember you Just so you know Leaving doesn’t mean goodbye

Basketball

This kinda just happened? I don't really know but I used to do basketball so this is what happened and stuff. The smell of sweat and Gatorade. The squeaking of $100 and $200 shoes on the linoleum floor. The bright gym lights burning the eyes. A ball being caught by a hand and swishing through a net. I love it. Hearing the shouts of people on the sidelines. Feeling the fabric of the jersey itching your neck. Tasting the cool water and sweat on your tongue. Feeling the burning in your limbs and the claps of your teammates against your back as you score. I yearn for it. Tears burn my eyes. My chest spasms as I try not to cry. My hands are clasped and hurt when I dig my nails into my palms. My brand new ball rolls in the corner where I had kicked it in my anger and frustration. I stop trying not to cry and I let my tears fall. I didn't make it, the basketball team. I remember the shock of reading the paper without my name on it. I remember that no matter how hard...
