Life-A dark tunnel

Life is like the tunnel

simple underpass to travel

with no scope to excel

but wait for a light and travel

our knowledge is limited

like the darkness that has existed

but your persistent drive

makes you stand firm and survive

you don't know what lies ahead

and you are unable to read

from left or right

but go ahead and walk on the tight rope

your visionary approach

serves as a coach

that throws light from a torch

and doesn't allow the darkness to encroach

if the sea acts like a roaring lion

and threatens humans

we are prepared to face the darkness

and seek an access
