英文詩兩首

(1)

 

Yes, I understand that

But I still choose to be simple

And direct, stupid sometimes,

Yes, I know.

Be happy for me

For I dare to discard the shell

And face the wind with bare skin.

I may even shed my skin one day

And turn into something formless, 

Soft, hard and indifferent at the same time.

 

(2)

 

I no longer want to set myself on a particular spot

In the air

And build a ladder towards it 

But rather to travel with this house 

And the streets underneath

To wherever they take me.

 

You see,

We actually live in a vessel

Flying through the space

At an amazing speed,

Where stars are born

And die all the time.

 

Turn off the lights, now you see,

Millions of them

Flickering like fireflies

In the dark.

 

Beautiful, isn't it? Life itself.

At least it appears so

In this vivid dream.
