Life is a tunnel we all must pass through
Life is a journey we all partake, a journey of pain and joy
Like a coin with two heads it randomly selects your fate
Many have failed, many have fallen, and many left for dead
Yet a few make it out at the end shattered, wounded but with a smile on their face
I’ve gone through pain, yes I know the agony but am I to giveup on this journey?
Sometimes I don’t know my own strength, I take a leap of faith yet I fall deep into the abyss
They say “when you look into the abyss, it looks back at you” so I ask what if i am blind?
Faith keeps calling yet no one is alive to beckon to its call, so it roams like a lost puppy
Sometimes I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders, should I drop the world?
They say a patient dog eats the better bone so I ask, what about a toothless dog?
They say pain is love and love is pain, what if am scared of the pain? What if I want to hate?
Sometimes I feel like am failure, a looser and a hopeless creation, so I ask why I was created?
“Ask and you will receive” I do ask and I do receive, do others ask and do they receive?
The joy of the lord is my strength meaning when God is happy I am immortal, so I ask…how do i make his happiness permanent?
Life can be unfair, but it takes time for the rain to fall, it takes time for an egg to hatch
I believe life is a tunnel which we all must go through one way or the other, in pain or in joy
I believe in tomorrow not yesterday, not last week or last night.
With faith, hope, patience, kindness and peace we'll all forge ahead in our lives.
So if after all the struggle,you eventually stumbled from yesterday and sliped into today, a better day, a sunny day, a peaceful and joyous day.
Would you be happier?
