LEAVE THIS SUNSET TO ME
Leave this sunset to me, the clouds red
as if they feel guilty; I am sure, the most
talented painter would not succeed in
immortalizing on his canvas such beauty.
This time I won’t compare the sun to a
big ball of fire but to a shining eye in
love, which is trying to enter so gently
inside its lowered eyelids.
I will stay true to its charm, its mixed
colors of the rainbow, to the chills that
run through my body and soul, just like
fingers on the piano keyboard.
Leave this sunset to me.
