This is a poem I wrote back in the summer of 1991, and it's from the point of view of a speaker who's been going through a dark period in their life and may now perhaps be starting to head toward a brighter future.
I encounter dangers in the dark
As I move through the tunnel of life
I encounter misery and wreck
And heartache and strife
As I stumble my way through the dark
I encounter obstacles and pain
I'm just about ready to go give up
And just go insane
But, wait a minute...
What's that up ahead?
Look over there, something's shining bright
I can see it ahead, at the bend
It's the light I have been looking for
The light at the end
