Belated Love 遲到的愛 by 哈金

Belated Love

So many years I wandered around
like a kite scrambling away from your hand
that left a flexible string,
How often my wings collapsed,
soaked by rain or shattered by wind.
Still, I went on scouring the clouds
for a face that might blow the shimmer
of my brain into blazing lines.
With a seething heart wobbled through
the air, chasing a sublime haze.
Now I'm at your feet,
no zest left in my chest,
my wings fractured,
my mouth foaming regret,
my words too jumbled to make sense.
What I mean us to say,
"My love, I've come home".
