The last golden rays of sunset
Shine within her eyes
As a glow of expectation
For a future yet to rise

For with sunset comes a closure
A gentle but final farewell
To a time of indecision
Where her fears overwhelm

As the lands stretch out before her
On their beauty she feasts
For therein lies her future
Uncertainty retreats

Just as the warm glow bathes the earth
It seeps into her soul
For together they will blend
Sunrise and sunset forever the whole.
