from spring

Your face is as pale and delicate as a pear blossom, and the leaves of a winter are rolling under our feet.
I never had time to think about how to settle our chaotic life, and in the blink of an eye, it was already covered by heavy snow.
I write poems under the candlelight that is as tiny as a firefly, and your steady breathing gives me the prehistoric silence of the universe.
No one can wake you up from your sleep, and outside the window, there are wolves howling hungry.
My heart never trembled, and love, I know what's coming.
I have never allowed you to lie in my life, and this only time is destined to be our permanent separation.
When lies can't fulfill this big dream, our future will be handed over to the truest death.
Ah, death, how long it is, long enough to fall from a tree of pear blossoms to snow in the sky.

    Appreciate incompetence...

    The fate of intellectuals is not much different at this time than at that time. When I was young, I always thought that I had the power to change society, and I never compromised, but in the end I found it was just a speck of dust wrapped in the torrent of the times. You lay life on a table, you cut out all the tumors of injustice. Marvelous. But cutting out the tumors of injustice, that's a deep operation. Someone must keep life alive while you do it, by living. Isn't that right? / Do you think its “personal, petit-bourgeois and self-indulgent”?
