    I wrote this on 8/28/2000 when very depressed and trying to get out of it.

    Out of the Tunnel by Teri Weeks

    In this tunnel that I live in,
    I know there is light somewhere.
    But not knowing how to find it
    Is my one and only fear.

    My head is spinning endlessly
    Thoughts, no where to be found.
    I cannot seem to stop the pain
    Is there anyone around?

    Tears of anger, rage, and hurt
    Fill my eyes each day.
    Stomach turning, burning, aches.
    Oh please! Take it away!

    But somewhere, yes, there it is!
    The light is shingin through!
    I know if I can reach it,
    I just may find out who...

    I am
    The Real me.
    Deep inside
    Breaking free.

    Here I am
    Alive and well.
    Head no longer spinning
    No longer falling in the well

    Here I am,
    And there is you.
    Assisting me in walking through.

    The Tunnel I was in
    Seeing light out there
    Knowing where to find it now
    No longer any fear
