Lying here, watching the sun set
Crimson colours filling the sky
Can't describe this feeling that I get
Wishing I could grow wings and fly

Fly off into that setting sun
Never look back, never turn around
Never think about the things I've done
Just close my eyes and lift off the ground

Spread those silver wings and soar
Trying to reach my final goal
I will feel this body nevermore
On this journey, I can only take my soul

As the sun is now almost gone
A final glimpse catches my eye
Signalling that it's time to move on
And say my last goodbye

Wow. I find it rather sad. It seems that the poem is trying to find the good in leaving, yet there is still a lot of regret. That's just what I get out of it.

Thank you for your comment
Yes, goodbyes usually cause mixed emotions don't you think?

LOL, usually, although I've had some that I was like 'thank God it's over!'

Very petty

How dare you call my poem "petty" !!

But I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you meant "pretty"
Otherwise I'll get depressed

your poetry is PETTY opps I meant Pretty.. and sad altogether . weird feeling towards such a beautiful poetry.

LOL, I am sure they meant pretty.

Good one Scorpion. ...It really makes one think.....

Very nice!!! I liked your poem... not matter how sad it may seem sunsets are awesome to watch...

Thanks for the kind responses guys

very lubly

Here's a cool wee ditty that goes along quite well with the poem (well, its spirit at least)
