Lonely people are shameful

The whole film runs on the dispassionate voice of that scruffy old man. Flat, fluffy, but it seems every word is pearly.

All the characters, like the old man's voice, are indifferent and dazed. Each has its own knot, each has its own heartbreak. Each has its own face, and each has its own escape.

From start to finish, there was an emotion as palpable and lingering as the morning mist. So familiar, I know, that's called loneliness.

Lonely because of what? Don't want to say, can't say, don't know where to start.

Loneliness is because the heart is forever missing such a corner. Even though all the gaps were filled, I could still feel the cold wind passing through, freezing my entire body.

It doesn't matter whether it's peach blossom or apricot blossom, sister-in-law or cousin, the important thing is that there is always a reason for you to be decadent, crazy, sad and cold.

Lonely people are greedy, lonely people are paranoid, lonely people are shameful. Holding that corner of heartbreak forever, don't look outside the desert. Spring has arrived, flowers have bloomed, and all things lushly cover the traces of winter.

Today, I am also shamefully lonely. Shopkeeper, is there any wine for sale?
