Analysis of Sunset
Sunsets are beautiful
Yet tragic
They remind me of endings
How a splendid sun has to go down
No matter how brightly it rose up
And shined whole day
No matter if some day the sun doesn't want to go away
It has to
Just like your love for me
In the end it had to set
It didn't matter how hard I wanted it to stay
It didn't matter that my heart was torn into pieces
It didn't matter that I loved you with all my heart and soul
You just had to go
It just had to end
Just as the day ends
Natural, beautiful but tragic
