Twilight
The shadows fall grey on the melting of day
I ponder on moments that passed my way
Did I meet someone new and shake their hand
or gaze as the wind sculpted the sand
As the sun hides its head for another nights rest
and the wind sings its same old song
The twilight will come to the days in this life
and those days seem not very long
I watch and wait for the daylight
to splash its twinkling of colors abound
To give birth once again with the beautiful sounds
of the new life dawn all around
Passed so many days I hurried away
not understanding how quickly they flee
I sit and wait for one chance to see the dawn fall once again on me.
