I saw the sun go down today,
a sight I saw many times before.
This time it was all brand new,
for I know not what tomorrow has in store.
Sometimes the things we are facing,
have consequences we cannot see.
As the sun goes down on today,
tomorrow we may not be.
We may wish upon second chances,
or to turn back the hands of time.
Yet, as the light fades to darkness,
we cannot change the things we leave behind.
We know not if we are fortunate enough,
to be able to see the next sunrise.
That's just the chance we take,
every time we close our eyes.
So the things we do today,
may affect the tomorrows we see.
And if you watch the next sunset,
you may cherish it just like me.
