An evening star rises in the sky after sunset. So metaphorically, the poet means to say that the sunset marks as an end of his life and the evening star serves as a hope for the afterlife. The “evening star” in the poem symbolizes the hope of a new life, for the speaker, after he meets his “sunset.”
