accidental
I am a cloud in the sky,
Occasionally projected in your heart.
You shouldn't be surprised,
There is no need to be happy,
It disappeared in an instant.
You and I met in the dark sea,
You have your own, I have my own, direction.
You remember it well,
You'd better forget,
The light that shines on each other at this intersection!
The poem "Accidental" was written in May 1926. When Xu Zhimo was in London, he met Lin. The best way for a poet to express his full love is to write a poem, so he wrote a pen. This two-paragraph 10 line poem is unique in modern poetry, but it can give such an abstract image adverb a concrete image, which is really lasting.
Xu Zhimo's feelings are warm and delicate, just like this poem, which is beautiful. From the poem, we can feel his deep affection. Without love, how can you write such a touching poem? Many people think that modern poetry is boring and has no artistic conception, but Xu Zhimo's poems are different, and people want to read them again after reading them.
Moreover, it is worth mentioning that this poem is not just a love poem, but also contains the poet's exclamation of life. Everyone has an established life trajectory, and meeting each other is a very accidental thing. In fact, people don't need to be too persistent about these hasty farewells, because it can't be changed, and paranoia will only make them suffer.
