Settle the Sun

I never said you had to settle for less this bargain we made with sweetest handshake. I'll look to you in the sun meet where ground gives way to sky.. see if any lingering dreams came true never to reason how or why. If evening songs become few you and I will know just what to do- For two souls in twilight won we'll rise and settle the sun.

Sometimes in life we gain more when we settle for less! Perhaps that is why certain relationships last forever. Regards // paul

Yes....forever would make more sense when placed between inverted commas.

Hi Paul, Perhaps. Still working out the meaning of forever. Assuming even stars will all burn out and die. But what've the space between? -Richard
