April Sunset | Poem

 
April Sunset

the line between
east and west
dissolves in travel
enough the same
direction
it is in the facing
opposite
we see ourselves
reflected
or absorbed
love lives
through
denials
retributions
obsessions
it is
the unspoken
turnings
of the human
heart
sunrise to sunset
sunset to sunrise
ever turning
