Out of Darkness

Into the Light

Out of my grey

days, I cast a backward

glance and hardly

recognize the person

I see before me, for

the former has passed.

A barren field, I thrived,

survived in fear.

And then He broke into my

lonely dungeon and captured

my heart like a knight in

shining armor: he delivered

my life with His life and

planted an unusual seed inside

the field of me. Florals of

praise blossomed from

within/without. Everything

about me began to grow into a

world filled with exotic color

laced with gold.

My Knight became my hero,

my soul’s lover, my soul’s source,

my King, and He loved me until

I became His queen. He was

The glory of my crown, but

I was His crown’s glory.
