The Long Day's End

The sun ultimately surrendered to the awaiting horizon
A blood red shade of crimson still smolders in the sky
The close of day has come upon me in an instant
As I drown in countless questions, of unanswered, why?

Darkness will soon consume the fading glow of twilight
As the quiet of the night takes me gently by the hand
Confronting past decisions, standing darkened by their shadows
Awaiting light of dawn, when a new day will take command

A day that is completely uncharted, no writing on it's pages
A day that is awaiting, my vivid brushstrokes made in ink
Mine to write the words upon. A new story in the making
Sunshine soon will break the horizon and I will be standing on the brink
