Sunsets



Sunsets

I still think of you
It no longer hurts
Nothing to be said
There are no words
When I see the sun
Set in the west
I see your face
And catch my breath
A second hand rose
Found by chance
Caught in your spell
Still under your trance
I watch the sunsets
Feet by the fire
I try to forget
Your love and desire
