Sunset

Ghosts that fade thru empty years; Ghosts that stretch the heart; Ghosts that leave a trail of tears And tear a world apart. Shadows pale into the past As sunlight dies its daily deaths. The Sun slips below the earth's cold breast Then shines once more with no regrets. written 2017.11.05©

It would be interesting if all humans could start each day with no regrets like the sun but then we would not learn anything would we. Enjoyed reading your work. Sara
