  • just as

    just as remembered rivers
    never end, i am the love that
    henceforth
    you can never really deny,
    the lamp in your heart  that
    henceforth
    you can
    never really switch off.

    just as
    dreams need no doctors,
    laughter mimics the collapsing
    gleam of dawn
    when a dream of love
    passes through your echoes

    just as
    an egret writes on water
    and passersby hurry
    over the ruins of our hearts,
    just as those who taught me breath and meaning
    bleed in the shadows of my poetry

    just as
    the inside of my heart holds a falling star
    and what's written on paper is my bones
    you will be my lifelong love.
    there will always be ways
    of explaining life

    but no way to quench
    this fire

  • You make it seem so effortless. Like an egret writing on the water.

    You embroider words into yarns, then stitch any and all life into art.

    You're so much bigger than your skin.

  • @zhangzun: always grateful for your words
