Haven

Very often,
There was this place by the sea.
Although unhidden,
It was a perfect spot for me.

My great getaway,
A quiet place at the end of the day.
My hiding place.
It Sheilded me from the speedy race.

My sanctuary.
Secluded, causing a cease from hurry.
My haven.
There, the heart rests and preps for heaven.

My steal away.
It birthed a memory.
It declared war against worry.
My haven by the sea; My forever story.
