When I kissed today goodbye, in twilight's fading gleam,
Embracing the night, bidding adieu to day's dream.
In that fleeting moment, a whisper in the sky,
A tender farewell to moments passing by.

As the sun dipped low, painting the horizon's hue,
I kissed today goodbye, as stars emerged anew.
The moments lived, in laughter and in tears,
In every joyous triumph and conquered fears.

I kissed today goodbye, with gratitude in my heart,
For lessons learned, each one a precious part.
With each fleeting second, time slips away,
A gentle reminder, in the evening's sway.

The memories made, they shimmer and they fade,
In the embrace of twilight, in the evening's shade.
When I kissed today goodbye, in the evening's embrace,
I welcomed the night with quiet grace.

For as today departs, tomorrow draws near,
With promises untold, with dreams to adhere.
So, in the twilight's hush, as today bids adieu,
I embrace the night, to start anew.

We are burning candles at both ends,
In life's relentless race, where time transcends.
Each end aglow with a fervent flame,
Bearing witness to life's passionate game.

One end aglitter with morning's rise,
A new beginning, a fresh sunrise.
With dreams alight and hopes so bold,
We chase ambitions, breaking the mold.

The other end flickers in twilight's grace,
As day surrenders to the night's embrace.
A quiet glow in the dimming light,
Reflections cast in the fading sight.

Burning candles at both ends we find,
Life's dualities, intertwined.
In fervent pursuits and moments serene,
In the balance, a life's unseen sheen.

Yet in this fervor, a caution's plea,
To cherish moments, to let hearts be free.
For burning too bright, too fast, too true,
May dim the light, leaving shadows askew.

So let us burn with a steady glow,
In balance and rhythm, a tranquil flow.
Burning candles at both ends, we learn,
To savor life's journey, at every turn.

Where is the laughter that you bring me,
That melody of joy, so carefree?
In memories cherished, moments past,
Your laughter echoed, unsurpassed.

It danced like sunlight on a summer's day,
Chasing the shadows, driving them away.
In the echoes of mirth, pure and bright,
Your laughter soared to joyous height.

Where is the laughter that once rang clear,
Dispelling worries, calming every fear?
Its resonance lingered in the air,
A symphony of happiness, beyond compare.

In shared moments, your laughter's chime,
Brought solace, like a soothing rhyme.
Where has it wandered, that cheerful sound,
A treasure lost, yet to be found?

Through life's trials, its twists and bends,
Your laughter brought warmth, like dear old friends.
Oh, where is that laughter, I implore,
To fill the silence, to live once more?

Let it echo through the halls of time,
Resounding joy, so pure, so prime.
For in your laughter, love took wing,
A melody that made my heart sing.

Though it may wander, momentarily unseen,
Your laughter's memory, forever serene.
Where is the laughter that you bring me?
In my heart's core, eternally carefree.

The sky with her baby blue eyes,
Gazes upon us with endless skies.
Her hue so soft, a tranquil sight,
In her embrace, all troubles take flight.

Those eyes reflect the morning sun,
As each new day has just begun.
With whispers of clouds in gentle embrace,
Her serene gaze, a boundless space.

She paints the day in hues so clear,
A canvas of blue, without a fear.
Her eyes watch over both land and sea,
In her tranquil gaze, we feel free.

At dusk, her eyes turn to twilight's hue,
The stars emerge in their cosmic view.
Her eyes, a lullaby to the night,
Guiding the stars, shining so bright.

In storms, her eyes reflect the grey,
A tumultuous dance in skies at play.
Yet even in tempests, her eyes hold grace,
The sky with her baby blue embrace.

So vast and endless, her tender gaze,
The sky with her eyes, in myriad ways.
A sight to cherish, beneath her skies,
The sky with her baby blue eyes.

We said hello to the man in the moon,
In a world where dreams find their tune.
Beneath the sky's vast and endless sprawl,
We greeted the moon, standing so tall.

With wonder in our hearts, we looked above,
To the man in the moon, a symbol of love.
In the silent night, where stars align,
We exchanged greetings in a language divine.

His serene face, a comforting sight,
In the velvety dark of the tranquil night.
We whispered our secrets to his gentle grace,
Knowing he listens in his celestial space.

In the moon's soft glow, a mystical dance,
We said hello, with a stolen glance.
His presence above, a constant friend,
Guiding us through, till the night's end.

We shared our hopes, our fears, our mirth,
With the man in the moon, who watches Earth.
Under his gaze, so serene and bright,
We found solace in the tranquil night.

As we bid adieu to the moon on high,
We knew in our hearts, our spirits fly.
For in the whispers of night's soft croon,
We said hello to the man in the moon.

Lord, I ain't done, my path unfolds,
In life's journey, its tales untold.
With each sunrise, a new chapter starts,
I'll brave the unknown, with all my heart.

In the ebb and flow of time's grand sea,
Lord, I'll seek what's meant to be.
In the face of challenges, I'll find my way,
I'll rise with the dawn, come what may.

For every stumble, every fall I endure,
Lord, grant me strength to rise once more.
In the tapestry of fate, I'll play my part,
With faith in my soul, a steadfast heart.

Lord, I ain't done, there's much to see,
The world awaits, full of possibility.
In every setback, in every test,
I'll strive for more, I'll do my best.

In the symphony of life, its highs and lows,
I'll embrace the journey, wherever it goes.
With hope as my guide, I'll carry on,
For Lord, I ain't done, my story's not gone.

So, with courage ablaze, I'll face the sun,
In each new chapter, my race I'll run.
For in this life, until my race is run,
Lord, I ain't done, I've just begun.

I shall be your silver and your gold,
A treasure trove, a love to behold.
In shades of silver, in hues so bright,
I'll shimmer beside you, in the darkest night.

Like silver, I'll be a calming stream,
Reflecting your hopes, your every dream.
In moments of joy, in times forlorn,
I'll be your comfort, from dusk to morn.

And like gold, I'll shine with radiant gleam,
A treasure trove in the love's grand scheme.
I'll hold your worth, your spirit's fire,
A priceless gem in life's grand desire.

In times of need, I'll be your strength,
A guiding light, no matter the length.
I'll be your warmth, when the world feels cold,
Both silver and gold, a love untold.

Together we'll gleam, a blend divine,
Your silver lining, your gold, that's mine.
In the tapestry of love, our story will unfold,
For I shall be your silver and your gold.
