Your beauty captivated me.
I longed for warmth, for the touch of the sun-rays.
Searching for a place to be at peace, a place that could take me away.
I was guided to your shores, locals told me about you directed me your way.
Driving through the streets of Port Townsend, I felt anxious, hoping you would be the right place.
Time was passing by so quickly, I tried to keep driving at a steady pace.
It was getting colder and the darkness was coming in, it was starting to take over.
All alone, trying to let someone go, I sought out your expansive waters to watch the sunset glow.
You helped me heal, like a helping hand.
You became like a dear old friend.
Stepping onto your sands, I felt like myself again.
You lead me to a place of mesmerizing beauty, full of peace.
The loss of love is never easy, but walking through your waters made it feel much easier, at least for the end of that difficult day.
A night alone with you, watching the sunset sky, as it drifted away, turned out to be all I needed.
Thank you, North Beach, you gave me a kind of love that is, in my opinion, much more ideal than the love I lost, a love that I thought was something that was real.
