Sunsets

I was trying to write a poem
about how lost our generation is

when I went outside
and saw the most beautiful sunset
since yesterday.

The kind with purples so deep they could be oceans,
reds so raw roses must be wilting on Mars.

And every generation has these sunsets.
I don't care what wars we've fought,
or meaning we've failed to find.

We can only be so lost,
as long as we have these sunsets.
