May 2013
She watches the sun set from the steps outside her house,
Never letting her sight linger away from the gorgeous star.
The sky transforms from a solid blue to a dome of pink and orange,
Meshing together to make the greatest view only few will ever notice.
For a moment, all is well.
Her endlessly thinking mind is silenced by the grace of dusk,
The sadness is gone from her eyes,
But instead bliss and amazement are engraved in her deep brown orbs.
Her hatred for the world is replaced by admiration,
And everything around her disappears for once.
It’s just her and the sun,
Both uniting as one,
And exiting the city for a while.
Nothing could be more perfect,
For it was just what she needed.
