They couldn't see life through her eyes,
and though he tried,
neither could he.
it was soon after her first taste of brokenness
the sting of loneliness and desolation clung to her
Like melting nylon in an inferno and though

only what he proclaimed as his own version of her honesty

as innocent and delicately kindly as they were,
she closed her eyes,
preferring very much to be blind.
