Watching Dusk (Sedōka)

Trace my orange locks
As we watch the purple dusk
As we thread our burning love

Grip my blue sweater
As we watch skies together
Where it feels like forever

This is the style of a Sedoka. It comprises of two katautas(Japanese poetry style) that take the form of a conversation between lovers. If it's just one stanza in the 5-7-7 format as shown, it'll be just a katauta, and it won't be complete. It doesn't have to rhyme, but sometimes rhymes just come to me, I guess.
