We are getting old, the river is still silent

Now, I am so obsessed with Paul. His smile is like the sunflower of the newborn sun, and the dance with the Indian woman in the hidden bar is also so confident and uninhibited, and his undisguised innocence and romance are undoubtedly revealed in his gestures. Regardless of worldly norms and frameworks, people create a vacuum to protect all of him, but his precious crystal, accidentally, will eventually be broken.

Years later, I was so infatuated with Norman. His restraint on emotion, let it just flow in his heart, silently, like the speechlessness of that big river. For life, he is respectful, perhaps rebellious but cautious. He knows how to cherish everything around him, and God must cherish him too. When he took a glimpse, all the warmth shed in an instant.

We are getting old, and the river is still silent.
