Our Sunset

Muted tones of muddy browns and rusted reds,
Dusk dawns across the sky,
Brilliance explodes before my eyes,
Light of the sun flickers down,
A dying flame licking low...

Close your eyes and sleep well,
Goodnight my darling, my love.
My tears fall and splash the ground;
Silence holds my hand,
A lingering ghost of you.
