Through my Tunnel

Lost and forgotten is where i stand
sad little soul wandering around
there is so much one can understand
as the world goes round and round

unsure of what it is i search for
as i fall into the stereotype of teens
lazy and tired as i search and explore
to make me who i am by all means

through a tunnel we each go through
dark and filled with many trials
with the lighted exit we each pursue
when it ends, it ends with smiles

i swim through my very own passageway
can't see what lies ahead of me
it is long yet i am more than halfway
can't wait for when I'm out free

everyday i search for some light
to help me get through these shadows
i will get through this long fight
through each of the highs and lows

i swim forward to see the light of day
to breath the sweet smell in the air
making my way til' everything is okay
i see light, i know I'm almost there

a smile long forgotten reaches my lips
as happiness comes to me by surprise
yet i still have to come to my grips
while many tears escape my blue eyes

this long journey is a journey of life
as we head forward learning as we go
we may laugh and we may end in a strife
yet we gain knowledge as we each grow

alas this is how life in general is
as we journey ourselves to our death
in the end we remember and reminisce
until out very.. last.. breath...
