In the sunshine of your love

Don't try. 
Just be.
She was laying 
on the pavement
resting 
her dark hair shining 
and splayed out
her lips only slightly parted 
in thought 
and understanding.
She was not cold 
you never could be when you lay 
beneath the sun.
She was not angry 
she could not hear the jeering taunts 
for she had beautiful music 
in her ears.
She was not scared
she could not see the children's feet 
poised above her, readying themselves 
to stomp, for her eyes were closed
as she drifted, drifted
peacefully away.

Title Quote: Sunshine of your love, Cream

Where did it go?
