The Clear Sunset
The night sky was grieving
I was like the work
of an evil child
I was terrified by the dreadful look
The enchanting grudge
I have with one feature
And the dazzling uncertainty of myself
People kill to be beautiful
My mind made a mighty mean
Mysterious thought of myself
I am the blemish in the sea
Then I looked clearer
The sun shouted with color
I can't explain it
I was so beautiful
I was caught
Dazzled by the lovely me
Far from being frightful for I felt
A fire from within
Dangerously beautiful
I hadn't paid attention
Here I look in amazement
And here is where the map should fold
I am human
I am as striking as lightning
I am a beautiful sunset
