It's gone

The quake has ceased, the storm subsided.
A pale rain keeps the soil moistened.
From impressing darkness, the horizon goes to gray.

The illness is gone.
No more pain, no more fear, no more procedures.
Those days of daily radiation are finished.
There is no body to be poisoned, to be flooded,
Secondary effects  don't reach us
 
What is done is done. 
As you promised, it didn't last forever.
Solution came. 
 
But the the sky is foggy now, 
Collapsed remains scattered around
where I strive to hold myself
from the consolidated light I see 
or the shine I'm determined to perceive.
