Last Light

              Hours ago, the sun had began to sink, and I had began to look around. As it got darker, the sky took up a hue, as if the beautiful paints of nature had leaked into the sky, and as for the first time there were no lights to see by, and I saw something far more beautiful. Purples, reds, oranges yellows, I was mesmerized by the multiple colors. And in this framed by the setting sun's last light the forest next to the house gained types of green I'd never seen before, or at least never noticed. Then shadows began to gather inside and the last light of the sun leeched the sky, darker ochre, maroon, and indigo took hold. Then as finally the edges began to darken to a heartless, cold, black, I stared into the sky until last light, until the darkness over took my surroundings.Then all became unseen.
