One Hundred Sunsets and a Sunrise

I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
yet the sunsets here make me want to close my eyes and picture them for eternity.
I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
This concept surprises me, wondering why I’m suddenly so drawn to nature’s beauty…
I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
Onlookers think I’m delirious when they see the gaze in my eyes
I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
Wishing all the time I had dyes to put to paper to show you the creations from above
I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
The mingling of night saying goodbye expressed in shades of reds, orange, pinks, and blues…
I’ve seen a hundred sunsets & not even one sunrise
But I sigh, will I give myself the chance to see that one, sunrise…
