You are California

Story

You are California to me, yet you do not know,

You are like a warm breeze on a summer day, soothing to my soul,

Your smile is like sunshine reflecting on my skin and leaving me with joy,

The orange hue of your sky takes my breath away as I stand in awe of your beauty.

Whenever the sound of your Pacific waves crashes against the shore, it echoes in my heart, sending a flutter of butterflies through my soul,

Each grain of sand slipping through my fingers is like a second ticking until I see you,

I keep breathing again under the shadow of your palm trees,

As I watch the moonlight reflecting on the sea, the stars shine bright, just like you, so close yet so far,

As the sun of the day and the moon of the night embrace, I hope for you to become one with me with all my being,

My soul then starts dancing with you, like reciprocal of dancing waves,

I get lost in the depths of your soul as I gaze upon your green eyes.

I keep drowning as your love keeps raining into my heart,

How could a love be sharper than a knife, yet mellow like the sound of the birds up above the sky,

I want to get free as birds and feel the wind whistling the song that reminds me of you,

I want to pour my heart out to the mountains and hear my words echoing,

To feel deep inside again how pure and deep my love is for you,

The love is like the clouds have for rain,

The love that sets my veins on fire and makes my heart collapse,

I might be silent outside, but feeling thunderstorms inside and hiding a tsunami in my eyes,

You are California I keep missing every single day, one step close but thousands of miles away,

I am feeling blue tonight, sinking into dreams of reaching home one day…
