Sunsets and Silhouettes
A shadow mirroring a silhouette,
Starry as night and daylight as luminous as one can get.
Inside and out, you are extraordinary.
Not a living being has the capacity to forget.
A shadow of a starry moonlight giving life a silhouette,
Mesmerizing as daybreak and breathtaking as sunset.
Your place on this earth bounds and disregards all misshape and regret.
Replacing all voids to let,
Bonds grow as each and every heart fill,
With starry nights and one-of-a-kind sunsets.
