The evening glows in a golden light
No dark clouds are pouring rain
As I walk to the sunset one last time
May your smile wash away my pain
May your thoughts fill my vivid dreams
As I slip into the endless night
When the music of life begins to ebb
May your song be my lullaby
May your soft breath caress my face
As I breathe in the last of mine
In your warm embrace, may I fall
In love with you one more time
May the last thing I see be your eyes
Of solemn grace and silent strength
As beautiful as our journey was
May just as poetic be its end

Inspired by these poignant lines from a ghazal by Qateel Shifai
aakhri hichki tere zaanu pe aaye
maut bhi main shaairana chahta hoon
