• In a sense, it was hypnotizing.
    The very sight of it was just breath taking, and wonderful,
    And you could only ask "How"

    How could something so incredible be so simple?
    It was so simple, and it happened all the time,
    And when you finally had the chance to see it,
    And take it all in, it made you think.

    Was everything just so simple, and do people just over-analyze?
    Or maybe, it was just this scene that was so simple,
    And you were just too brilliant, so you were over-analyzing?
    No, it was most definitely the first idea,
    People just over-analyze.

    So many questions, all because of this simple thing,
    What makes it glisten?
    Why did it, that it left you breathless, and want more?
    Why were there so many questions?

    It happens all the time, and sometimes,
    It's just over-looked.
    People don't pay any attention.

    I pay attention, for this may be the last.
    Maybe I'll see one hundred more,
    Or possibly just two.

    I watch them, these simple, over-analyzed,
    Sunsets.
