A Letter to My Sunset

Dear My Sunset,
Things are about to get dark and things will begin to go bump in the night. You're my last bit of light, protection from the things that go unseen in the night. The day was filled with laughter and joy and it's because only your light could make beauty seen. And even when the skies were cloudy, you always came back with something more amazing than before, a rainbow. But now you're leaving me and I can't do anything but chase you around the world. I guess what I'm saying is that I'm gonna miss you and that I have no power over whether I'll see you again. This night may just take me away from here, never to see you again so, at this dusk, I'm making a rope so that I can catch you and have you for a little longer... the world doesn't want us together. And until I'm in the heavens with you, I ask you to please come back tomorrow. That way I'll know you're constant and not a shooting star that I will only see once but continue to wish upon.
