Light at the end of the tunnel
How cliché
I look, there’s no ray of sunlight
Nothing to direct my path
I keep trodding though
In hope to see this light
The journey is hard
But I keep going
The thought of light
Quickens my steps
And keeps me engaged
A glimpse of something afar
Grabs my attention
Each steps takes me closer
I brace myself
As the full ray of the sun embraces me
I found it!!
Light!
What a great metaphor that can mean something unique to each reader – whatever it is that brings light to their lives, the seeking, the knowing, the hoping, and the arrival. The movement through this poem is nicely rendered.
