An Evening On the Anping Beach
A free and calm evening
You, the Anping beach and me
Quiet, cloudy, and lonely
Few hampered noises
The ocean conquest the entire atmosphere
Angry clouds hide the sun
No flashlights can replace the sun
Clouds are floating to add color to the sunset
Too much gathering cover the sun
One more day in my life has set before the sunset
The gentle and cold wind chilled my shaved face
Huge rock block on the shore breaking the exciting waves
You can listen to their pain from the roar when they return
Darkness grasp the happiness
Waves are raising
The dry sands are satisfied with the salty water
The sand is soft, scattering, and splish-splash between my toes
Oyster shells are along the shore
I can smell the ocean and feel the grain of sand
We walked along the beach
Left our footprints on the back
I looked back to see my footsteps
Few waves gently crashing them in front of my eyes
I was helpless. Then the waves kissed my legs
Makes me realize I am nothing more than a small sand grain
Move on or crash down
You are singing death!
I hear the breathes and roars
A passionate battle between the sources of life
When the wave approach towards us, we run away
The waves turn back correspondingly for we are unwilling to embrace it
Though we like the ocean and beach
We often afraid to make our clothes and shoes wet
In our life too we recap the same comportment
Even though we want someone, we are so scared to hug them
We are afraid to acknowledge the love and feeling
Not because we are shy, but we are weak
Weaker than the sands on the beach
The waves break the dirt down
Washed ashore, move them up and down
In the face of everything, even now they embrace the waves
Mollifies and send them back to the ocean
Love of sand calms the angry and boisterous waves
