Sunrise Kiss

A light rising amidst the dark of night
The kiss will stand against the hardships of life,
From the sun shining so bright
The kiss is only more vivid and brings more delight.
And even though the day will end
The kiss of our love will never divide,
A sunset less lively than the sunrise
The kiss will only become more intense as the days go by.
A variety of warm colours
Cascade down hair and shoulders,
With the sun going down
Eyes capture the last light of day.
The kiss embraces, moments last longer
Making the sun go down only a few minutes slower,
The kiss lives, the kiss endures, the kiss lasts-
Sunrise kiss.
