When I close my eyes
I see colors
Colors of everything I want to be -
Free
Beautiful
Full of light
But then
My eyes open
I feel the darkness.
So I close them again.
The colors make me happy,
They give me hope
To be
Free
Beautiful
Full of life

So simple, yet deeply moving. The contrast between color and darkness is beautifully captured. Well done! 🌈
