Beach Sunset Love Poem - "The Sun Sets On The Beach"

Here is a short beach sunset love poem inspired by couples walking hand in hand on the sand.

As the wind blows off the sea, the feeling of togetherness seems to swirl in the salty air, sweeping tiny wisps of sand along with it.

Wordless and delicate—like love.

The Sun Sets On The Beach

The sun sets on the beach
And beneath the moonglow
Our footprints cast shadows
Of our day beside the sea
And when the tide washes over them
It can never erase you and me
