: The tunnel by Jean Hornby
Love Bites writing prompt entry

I walked through a tunnel,
Hoping to find you there,
But all I found was emptiness,
And a developing fear.

I look long and hard ,
But there is no trace of you,
I feel my heart skip a beat
As I search high and low,
Because my irregular heartbeat
Needs you so.

Why have you left me,
So vunerable and alone,
Why lock your heart,
When I thought mine was your home.

The tunnel now becomes darker,
And your still not here,
I need you to get me out,
So my vision suddenly becomes blind
As every emotion in me shouts.

I stay lost in this tunnel,
And all alone as can be,
Because every corner that I search,
Remains cold and empty.

But my heart refuses to let me leave,
My emotions hold on to,
So a fresh tear suddenly,
Joins in the search that I have for you.

I am trapped in this place,
That you have put me in,
Why am I the victim,
When I did not sin.

I am now crawling in this tunnel,
I want you back so much,
I want to kiss you again,
And feel your long lost touch.

But find you I cannot,
Though search for you I have tried ,
So I am doomed in this tunnel of love,
All because my heart refuses to die.
