Tunnel

Each year passing, another one gone

Notice less around me, as I trudge along

Focused on winning, a race that is done

Struggle to keep this facade of a man

Keep doing the best that I can

Is it enough, to just be

or is something fighting to release the inner me.

So much to ponder about ..Trying to win a race that is done....I do believe it is enough to just be who we are in the inner core of us...I enjoyed reading your post Michael..Charma
