"Here comes the sun." she says,
Lifting her pale hands up to the warm rays,
She closes her eyes,
And breathes,
As if for the first time,
In a very long while,
His arms around her waist,
Head against her shoulders,
Bare,
He sees the pain in her eyes,
Nothing he does,
Can get them out of there,
Even as he sweeps away the soft hair,
That falls into her eyes,
She leans against him,
As if for strength,
And he knows her words,
Are lies,
She cannot hide,
The scars he made before,
Not in the sunlight,
Not anywhere.
