A wave of golden hue
Shines from behind the trees
From behind the clouds
Illuminating the world
The sky turns purple and pink
Almost dreamlike in it’s intensity
It makes me think
Why does this resonate?
This scene before me
With the suns blessing
Becoming the nights beginning
As dusk settles like a haze
Over the landscape
Into my heart
It sinks
As does the sun
Twinkling stars flicker
Into life - between breaths
The golden hue
Dispersed now
Into the ether
Waiting for tomorrow
Just like I
Whose heart is heavy
With its absence
Still …
We have the sunrise
To look forward to
