The setting sun

The setting sun

Looking, at the setting sun
brings the end
to another day
Soon, darkness will conquer
my world only
to bring another day
and this cycle of day and dark
gives a call
that someone’s dusk
is another man’s dawn
that nothing is permanent
except for change itself
that no matter how dark it gets
there always will be
golden rays of hope tomorrow
that life does give another chance to those
who want to rectify their past
that the changing colors of the sky
change like phases in life
sometimes anger and red
sometimes calm and blue
sometimes peace and white
sometimes, the dark night
sometimes, cloudy gloom
and sometimes, complete.
