But when the sun rises
he too rises, and shines his love on her,
they make more plans, pack, unpack, leave, arrive,
play more games, spend more time together;
their friends are dying one by one,
perhaps he's communing with them in the dark, perhaps with the dark,
each day he's no less here than the day before,
but his nocturnal absence grows and grows.
