Sunset

The slow-falling sun shall soon kiss the sea, 
     Those two forlorn lovers to meet finally; 
The sea blushes red from feeling the warmth
     Emanating from within the sun’s hearth
Drawn always together, till distance not much, 
     Yet ever so cruelly forbidden to touch.
Horizon’s the stage to this tragic play: 
     Come and be introduced to this dying day.
