Watching the Sunset

Watching the sunset—
with our hands link together on the beach.
Purple ans pink light
ripple on the ocean
as if a possible future for us
from God.

Watching the sunset—
on our deck years later—
eating our fifty-year anniversary dinner.

Watching the sunset—
for the first time
without you
And I feel lost with without you.
