the sky turned shades of red
as the sun retreated to the hills
it reminded me of how theres still embers
burning with lust
despite how cold the air had grown
the scent of ashes was thick in my lungs
becuase i could tell
that even though the fire was out
something inside me still burned ever so brightly
like the sun i was watching go down.
it lowered itseft to light the other half of the globe
as i sat here in the dark
realizing
it burnt out long ago.
