Dusk Till Twilight

It takes a long while, staring at the sunset,

To realise how many days, years have past.

That if a union to have met,

With someone called my past.

It would be a raw heart with no worries,

It now, a troublesome heart, with one wish.

To go back to those good old stories,

To loosen and comfort the now tight leash.

Crimson, mauve colours circling the sky,

Won't be enough for me to cry.

I've always found it sad to watch though, why?

Cause that place I return at an ended day - is a lie.

And that place, I truly long for - distant.

Is nothing more than a dream, a fantasy.

So many feelings I should've sent,

Can only be my own secret history.
