The sun is slowly…slowly…slowly… <br />Setting <br /> <br />I watch, perched on the edge of my open window <br />The sun sinking below the horizon <br />My chest is tight <br />My breathing short <br />My heart is aching, but I can’t say why <br />While all I can do is watch as the sun <br />Slowly…slowly… <br />Sets <br /> <br />Night is slowly…slowly…slowly… <br />Falling <br /> <br />Darkness creeps across the earth and <br />My aching heart is soothed <br />My rapid breath is calmed <br />And the tightness in my chest is released <br />As with the cool breath of evening <br />As with the Night I <br />Slowly…slowly… <br />Fall<br /><br />Kira Ader<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-sun-is-slowly-setting/
