I Would Like to See the Sunset

Closed off in this cave of mine.

A slave to glory, fortune, and time.

I squint my eyes to see

The too-bright screen staring back at me.

The dusk outside is calling me

To see with my eyes the closing day.

I pull back the blinds, I was correct

The sun is waving its last goodbyes,

And I nearly missed it, but for this work.

I nearly missed nature's calming wave,

Its reassurances as we fade into night.
