Sunset
The sunset is the last glimpse of light from a long weary day
The last tired hope of light before darkness arrives
No matter where you move in the world
You’ll always witness the long tiresome day and the cold dark night
But each day for a short period of time
You get to see that last glimpse of sunshine appearing over the horizon.
For no one Loves the pressure of bright light
Nor the loneliness of the long unwinding darkness
But in this short period we experience the light and dark clashing
Serenity is found in the masterpiece of the sky’s last battle to resist pressure and loneliness.
In the dark you cannot foresee the difference between a vast green meadow or a small patch of dirt
The light an illusion
The sun it’s magician
Hiding behind the towering skyscrapers
Looking down upon you and your accomplishments.
As you head home from each days trick
Your accompanied by the late days last battle
To show off it’s exuberant colors between the bright blue day and the overwhelming dark night.
