I'm Waiting...

Missing image

I see a light at tunnel's end
beckoning, brightly,

I hear my name called out softly
as a dare; testing any necessary

courage to come see, feel.

Overpowering, yet I ask,

would I be sheltered from life's storms...

Would it love me, keep me safe, warm,
I see a light at tunnel's end

undecided I let it be.
In numbing stance, I am mesmerized;

while I quietly watch this ray of light dance.

In shadows I stand unseen,

invisible, untouchable;

just like an ethereal gathering of mystical beings.
Quietly [as to not allow it to perceive me]

I hear a call to the spirits
that go unseen but, not unheard.

Here I am at the end of the tunnel, alone, 

knowing I look absurd.

I see a light at tunnel's end

and so, I dare take a first step to see

whilst I let my soul run wild, run free,

As I am waiting,

to feel the light's touch.

    This was an inspiring and creative piece of poetry. I enjoyed the hesitance within this piece as something that shows itself as light might be an illusion. I like the fact that you guarded yourself. Thank you so much for entering and all the best
    Love & Respect,
