DYING SUNSET
I had loved thee Sunset
But now, thy sublime charm,
Doth hold no more enchantment for me.
For, the cruel cacophony of heartbreak
Ricochets, ricochets, over and over again.
Thy bloody hue and deepening black Now signifies a dying day –
Time takes its course … --
I bid farewell to one and all –
I bid farewell to Love -- !
Thy bloody hue and deepening black Now signifies a dying day –
Time takes its course … --
I bid farewell to one and all –
I bid farewell to Love -- !
