I see the end of the tunnel
A gaping dark hole of insecurity and misplaced feelings
I've been on this journey all my life
Drifting and faced with mortality
I see the end of it
And I realize that what I've been through
What I have faced in my life
Has given me strength and perseverance
Throughout the hardest of challenges
Closer to the end of the tunnel
I feel the warmth
Of all the love that I've gathered along the way
And the beautiful people I have met
And fought with
At the gaping hole
I see a light
Flashing
Bringing me in safely
I pull in my boat
Thanks to the help of the lighthouse
One journey finished
And many more to come
Author notes
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
I hope you have many more coming for you
Good luck with everything
