Ocean Sunset

As the calm water washs my dry feet
The radiant daylight starts to perform the last dance
Carefully the stars tip-toe onto stage
The waves crashing sounded they were giving a strike gently
Elegantly the moon bound onto stage
Petrifying darkness filled the sky
Trying to dissemble I fell and dived.

Under cover I shivered and shake
Hoping soon the sun will awake
Not sure of when it will come out
Just waiting there my head filled with doubt
Slowly the darkness went down
I realized I missed them with a frown
Not even the sun could cheer me up
I realized that day
Only the darkness made me feel this way
