Sunset
SUNSET
Looking at the sun as it sets
It’s light suffusing the clouds
The day has come to an end
The setting sun; setting space for the moon
The night is about to take control of the rest of the time
Darkness is approaching; the shinny light fading for the night
The beginning is coming to an end; bringing everything to conclusion.
The sun is yet to set
The moon has already made an appearance
Is this a dethronement of supremacy? We all wonder
What is the rush all about?
We sure need a light but nobody asked for a fight
Things are getting worse than expected with worst coming unexpectedly
Who could imagine the sun setting at a time we need its shine?
Born new, now young; getting old
Passing every stage of life as the future unfolds
There is time for everything; time to die will sure come
Nobody is sure of that tale anymore as our young folks are now gone
Leaving the old to mourn their young ones; thought it’s the other way round
Thought there was procedures; but the processes didn’t wait
All is sinking to oblivion; how can the sun set in the morning?
