Napowrimo 2018 – day 8

MORIA

The tunnel twists and turns about
And stretches ever on
How long until I see the end
And see the light of dawn?

Too long I’ve wandered in the dark
I’ve tripped too oft to name
Each turn I think ‘the end is near’
But ev’ry turn’s the same

At every juncture in the path
I must choose left or right
But cannot know if what I chose
Will lead to dark or light

I need a guide to take my hand
To guide me through this maze
So I might once again behold
The sunlight’s glorious blaze

I’m lost in here and near despair
I’m weary heart and bone
I need a guide to take my hand
Too long I’ve been alone

I need a guide to take my hand
To guide me back to home.
