The Setting Sun

The Setting Sun

Written November 16, 2007

Every night the setting sun has a story to tell,

it whispers through the sky,

only the heart can hear,

the waves reach up to kiss the sun as it slips below the horizon

like the waves we are unique and exists for only a moment,

the colorful sky is filled with birds on their last flight,

only the lapping of the waves can be heard for all becomes quite,

softly listen, the story is still being told

when all you have are memories,

listen for the story like the waves I will soon be gone from here,

look for me in the sunset,

know that when you look upon a sunset,

and listen with your heart

you will hear the whispers of the stories we shared

and love is looking back on you.
