Sunset

How fast the sun sets each day, 

Here one moment and gone the next, 

Colors streaked across the sky, 

Blink, and it’s dark again, 

Fleeting moments are all we’re handed in life, 

Just a smile here and a feeling there, 

Sometimes living is the most beautiful thing in the world, 

Don’t waste the daylight hours crying, 

Don’t spend the nighttime ones regretting, 

Because the slower you want time to pass, 

The faster the sun vanishes across the horizon, 

And there’s no guarantee you’ll wake up, 

To see it rise the next day.
