Tunnel
The tunnel in front of me
opens the mouth of darkness
attracts like a magnet.
I sink into the abyss with a lunatic step
and let myself sway to sleep.
I look through the slides of my life
frame by frame
memories burst a painful
stinging chest.
A bright lamp that is still burning in me
slowly fades,
drowned in waves of despair.
This tunnel has no way out.
opens the mouth of darkness
attracts like a magnet.
I sink into the abyss with a lunatic step
and let myself sway to sleep.
I look through the slides of my life
frame by frame
memories burst a painful
stinging chest.
A bright lamp that is still burning in me
slowly fades,
drowned in waves of despair.
This tunnel has no way out.
