When the Sun’s Going Down

When the sun’s going down

A struggle erupts

Between two forces-

Equally potent but on their own time

When the sun’s going down

There’s a contest to take over

One attempting to say its last,

Manifest its force with full might

The other trying to take over,

All set to engulf everything to come in its way

When the sun’s going down

The two forces wrestle

One growing feeble, the other potent

Both are unaware

Only a while after

The sides will change

Only but sides

Is it really about power?

Or is it about time?

The most potent of all!

Erecting a circle of two forces

With one coming after the other

The other becoming one

And yet in the quest to overpower the other

Both are engaged in futile attempts

At taking charge of their destiny

Moving slowly yet gradually into one another

But by bit subsuming into oneness…
