Sunlight Kisses

Speckled black and blue Pain pulled around you Down the spine and spread out over the back and ribs Pain wrapped around in an unending circle Never stopping for a moment Then comfort as sunlight kissed the battered flesh Bright and blinding was the first glance at the sun Ebbing pain faded away into sunlight kisses that began to sting And short lived comfort passed again into never ending pain Never to be comforted by sunlight kisses again
