We climbed to the huts
up the switchback trail
of a topless hill
on an endless coast.
We were taught that we would
find peace up there.
What we actually found
was something close.
It wasn't the view,
except when I turned
from it to you, because
you said "Look!"
And I did.
And I saw
what we came here for.
Or why I'd come,
at least.
This was not
in the book.
