The Sun is setting.
Falling out of view.
The ocean surrounded him.
All that was left was his orange and yellow hue.
My friend, my only friend
Descending into the blue.
My heart turned cold as the mist of the sea.
The night swallowed me whole.
And so my heart sang out a plea
I ask rest for my soul.
My friend is gone.
I’ve said goodbye.
I have faced my fears
and so I cry and sail away
on my sea of tears.
Beautiful poem! Your imagery is so colorful and it is a nice contrast with the sad and emotional metaphor of the sun setting. Love it!
