Light, at the end of the tunnel

It has been dark here,
for what seems many a year.

But ahead it is clear,
the sun is shining near.

Life is full of ups and downs,
mixed with smiles and frowns.

Sometimes we get sucked into the mire,
loose our ambition and desire.

It takes a lot to open our eyes,
to see the sunny skies.

I can see it, shining bright,
it is indeed a glorious sight.

Behold the light, out of a tunnel of dark,
through which our souls embark.

I want to drink in the glorious glow,
to saver it deeply and slow.

It is still dark in here,
but the sky is shining in the distance clear.
