Oblivion

I see the sun gliding down,
Fading almost -
Losing its colour as it makes its downward descent.

It goes in and out of focus,
Like an old camera lens flickering for life,
With the clouds its parting partners -
Faithful till the end,
Frolicking around it, shapeless yet a joined show of respect.

When cerulean changes to navy
And bats take off for their day -
The crimson wounds itself inside my heart.

The sun a bright memory,
Its moving strength a pulsing beat -
Serene calmness of dawn,
Blinding light of noon
And a tired smile at dusk -
On its way to oblivion.
