The Daylight Ends

The Daylight Ends

When the sun rises we find our hearts filled with joy

Every moment filled with life and color

We could be there endlessly

Just talking and laughing endlessly

As the day passes, the heat drives us away

We seek the shelter of our homes

We find we rarely laugh

The stress makes it hard to laugh

Then comes the setting sun, beautiful and bright

Full of promises and hopes for tomorrow

Yet it is the end of today

So ends the life and love of today

Night settles in and the moon and stars shine

They are beautiful, promising, but distant

So we grow cold in the dark

So we are separated by the dark
