The setting sun...

He stands staring as the sun goes down
thinking about the time long gone by
the moments the memories and every other thing
he closes his eyes and breathes with a sigh

He was alone, oh lonely he was
crying in pain he spent many a night
all he wanted was someone to listen
someone to get along with, someone to fight

Like the light at the end of the tunnel
a ray of hope, he sensed someone nearby
it was her, who would hold his hand steady 

never let go even if it was his time to die

Like a breeze from the ocean she had come
sweeping his mind of the problems deep in
his heart's closed book suddenly felt open
as he read to her all the pages within

He felt happy, he suddenly felt connected
with his heart beat skipping really fast
he also felt scared, and a little worried
wondering how long it was going to last

Unsure of the outcome, he chose to tread
the path full of surprises that lay ahead
it was fun mostly, at times really wild
he held on to her like destiny's child.

Days passed in a jiffy, months became years
she had become his world, a beautiful bond
go with the flow, live in the moment
she kept saying, as he grew of her, more fond

From dusk to dawn, along with rest of the day
without each other they really could not stay
always wondering how it would feel to depart
he didnt realise when she had entered his heart

As expected fate showed its ugly face one day
times of separation and pain were on the way
we need to be strong, please dont leave
he begged to her, asked her not to give in

The fights and misunderstandings were on the rise
truth took a back seat, he visualised the lies
the world around him had began to crumble
thoughts inside his head were all so jumbled

He was missing her badly, scared of separation
he cried in pain through the times of desperation
he felt his hand now slowly loosing her grip
the more he tried to hold on, the more away it slip

He stands staring as the sun goes down
wishes to hold on to that vision before its gone
thinking about the day that had already past
worried about the darkness, a shadow it would cast

He hopes the day that follows is just as bright
with memories as wings, dreams are put into flight
moments cherished forever would serve as a guide
till death do they part, our souls will be tied
