Her Sanctuary
In the soft embrace of the dawn’s first light,
She treads the shore so brightly.
Feet kissing the sand in a rhythmic dance,
Her heart beats fast, lost in a trance.
Though love once left her bruised and torn,
With every step, a new hope is born.
In the ocean’s roar, she finds her song,
Believing that love will come along.
The horizon blushing at her grace,
As the salty breezes kisses her face.
It is running with dreams that soar and dart,
She’s chasing sunrises with her heart.
Past wounds had taught her to be wise,
In every sunrise a new journey lies.
Her spirit, unbroken, flies free and high,
And with every wave’s whisper, there’s an answer: why?
With every heartbeat, she shreds her fears,
Each step forward dried her tears.
The beach, her canvas, is comprehensive and open,
In its vastness, she finds her token.
For love is not found but felt, nurtured, and grown,
In the spaces where lights are shining.
Hope is her compass and guides her quest,
In the pursuit of love she will never rest.
The sea’s melody beats in sync with her soul,
Speaks of the future, once again, whole.
With hope as her beacon, she does not despair,
Another love will repair her heart, though scarred.
The sun’s golden rays paint her in the light,
A testament to her internal fight.
For she knows deep down the love will soon return,
In her heart’s fire, it will again burn.
As dusk falls and stars adorn the sky,
She watches dreams on the horizon fly.
With each wave, her heart sings louder,
Her hopes and dreams now shine brighter.
She’s a beacon of love, pure and true,
She is guided by a light eternally true.
In her journey, she’s both lost and found,
In her silence, love abounds.
With the moon’s glow to guide her way,
She knows she will find true love someday.
The beach is her sanctuary, where she’s free.
A place where she can be.
With every step, she’s closer to finding,
A love that’s forever, not just binding.
So, she runs with her heart, both fierce and tender,
Waiting for the love that proffers by faith.
