Teary-eyed, we drive into the sun

Ending day rays

Begun

Simply to end in a grey-dark brooding night

Sunlight gone now

As quick as it started

 

Teary-eyed, we watched as the sun set

Sat down below

The road

In front of us

Bright day behind and our tire tracks

Leading West

Trying our best

To chase the final vestige

Of a light always fading

 

Clear-eyed, we drive into the night

This nighttime-reflection

Introspection

We can only assume this darkness

This darkness

A gift
