Unknown

A pinpoint of light
In the eternal void before me,
Beacon of hope or despair
Who can know?
Only one must hurry toward it,
Curious to discover the truth
Behind the beckoning,
The promise of something more.
Tunnel of hope
Spiraling out into the distance,
Unknown trail to blaze;
And hidden ghosts -
Or demons or angels
Abide within the wreckage
Of foliage once green
With love and trust and desire.
Now is the gift
The lady or the tiger?
Who can know?
I am only the runner,
And seeing ahead
That pinpoint of light,
I must move on.
