A Setting Sun

I am so tired of driving towards a setting sun

I never get any closer to the horizon 

I am greasy and tired 

Outrunning a hungry nightfall 

I am trying, I swear, I am 

But I only have so much to burn

It's been a lifetime 

Of twitching eyes and and baked gasoline

Sleep sounds nice 

On evenings like these

I'm from the west Coast we have beaches, this write makes me think where I was when I was younger two lands one Mex and the USA., but you don't realize what you describe , was going to the other side Mexican want to go to the side, run jump and even climb, but never swim, until one we went to beach with beers to keep us drunk and gas to keeps us warm but as night falls we we're out of beers so someone said who will go for the beers, so a few ran to the end of the fence cross to the USA then came to us and said, we'll be right back.
Thank you for sharing.
