Darkness Grows Lighter Poem by Kresta Farr

Darkness grows lighter,
Sun appears not rain,
The grey is pale,
Not colours yet,
But not grey,
Cream,
The colours are coming,
And with the colours,
Comes happiness,
Even more now than ever,
The sparkle makes me dizzy,
The smile makes me tingle,
The wink makes me shiver,
Here beside me,
I have eternity,
No more boxes,
No more closed doors,
I know from now on,
They are wide open spaces,
Opportunities to the unknown and untouched,
Freedom from the chains,
And togetherness of the heart,
Sand, sun, earth, moon and stars,
Light up my life,
And the sweet kiss,
The taste,
And touch will last forever,
And the boxes,
And closed doors,
Will be a figment of the past,
A small dust particle,
On my little map,
Of the train journey,
Of what they call life,
And what I call forever.
