The sun was setting in the horizon. I watched it and wondered should I walk towards it or wait back until it comes to catch me again, As the sky eliminated with a gorgeous glow and it warmth slowly fades away I wandered how far would I go should I pursue it, will my feet carry me in this journey or will they fail ,I wondered what would it be like to be in the light ,how would it feel to touch it's rays, The heat of the evening sun shining upon my face,
a reminder of my unattainable longing for warmth, and shining aura of life,the warmth
that let even the the brightest sun
look pale in comparison.as I wondered the darkness started to creep in as I fight the urge to cringe in dark corners alone,then I remembered Stars await the moon to turn its gaze in its own level of beauty that cannot compare,remembering that
Away from the earth towards the sun, the centre of the solar system
It is solar and not the earth system
The sun is not the only star, but a black hole that draws the moon towards it,
How it tugs the sun at once, but still keeps it's space, as I felt the growing distance between me and the radiance , I look towards the vast universe in awe and envy how it is able to go and come back shining everytime without fail.
