fading

by Emily G Myers

you're fading like the evening sun
behind the trees that make the skyline
the sun that shone so brightly in the middle of my day
rose with me to make the morning
falls with me to make the night
you'll be gone for a while
til I decide a new day
but still now...here you're fading like the evening sun
so far away from me that I can't reach
I couldn't if I were near
you'd burn my skin as you have before-
just as the sun makes me red
you are dangerous
but I love you
