No Light at the End of the Tunnel

In a maze of confusion here alone I sit;

the path of my future remains unclear

a decision I need to make but I can’t commit;

my future is not as bright as it may appear.

I fumble to try and make sense of it all

it’s like I’m reliving my tender years;

happening at the worst moments I recall

as I retreated into isolation and tears.

Though all grown up I’m still insecure,

I make the connection to when mother passed;

the pain and loss of her took years to endure

and it still comes up but thankfully it doesn’t last.

As I’ve grown old and wiser I finally realize

memories and relationships is what really matter;

broken marriages my happiness never materialized

and every choice I made seem to end up in disaster.

As I reflect some things to me are still so profound

while other things were so simple and yet so subtle;

Despite changes in my life I’ve yet to make ground

so I’ll never see the light at the end of the tunnel.
