Meeting Sunset

I met sunset
She's wearing an orange dress
Sitting on a bench
near the shore

She started walking down the beach,
so I followed her
She walked quietly
leaving a flowery scent behind

Sunset paused by the water
There was someone there
I saw a boy in purple
Waiting sliently with care

The boy was Night
They kissed upon the light
Sunset faded slowly
leaving Night behind
