Tunnel

I was new
They taught me to walk
I run along
I trudge slow
I fly high
Then bham!
I rub dirt off my knee
And blood clots off my hands
I run again
That is all I know
Passion fuels me
Indifference slows me
With meaning all things are bearable
I strike a balance
I walk now
Through the tunnel which I’m told
Will end
Been walking a long many months
This tunnel winds endlessly
This battle rages on
I hold my banner high
My hands weaken
My legs tremble
My heart fails
I drop my banner
At the foot of the tree
White
