Soothing tranquility
I believe
The words of passion
I can breathe

From the soft spoken whisper of the wind
To the relaxation of the waves crashing in
It seems as if it is forever and a remembrance for the moment because
I found the meaning of purpose, your love

Is something I have patiently waited on
And the water through my toes are slowly vanishing, almost gone
The presence I can sense with my eyes closed
As there are flashbacks of the moments we hold

Now with this flower petal in my hair
Gazing at the gorgeous sunset that for a moment is a warm stare
Anything that can relax you as much as the one you keep private
The delicate occurrences of this joyous moment of silence...

The author's comments:
I always enjoy the beautiful sunsets on the beach because they are always romantic and soothing. In my poem I tried giving enough details to the readers so that they would have the same visual that I received while writing this. The next time you go to a beach and the sun starts going down, just sit and take in the scenery with a moment of silence.
