Ancient poems about longing for your lover
1. Relying on the flying soul to attract others, I miss you where you are and you miss me. ——Su Shi of the Song Dynasty, "Butterflies Love Flowers, Flowers Fall in the Windless Wind"
This poem describes the poet's deep longing. When I am missing you, you must also be missing me.
2. At night, I suddenly returned home from a deep dream. I was dressing up outside the small window. ——Song Dynasty Su Shi's "Jiangchengzi"
This describes the poet's deep longing for his deceased wife. However, the poet does not write from the front, nor express his feelings directly, but a close-up of his wife sitting in the dream. The scene of dressing up in front of the small window uses the most ordinary and smallest details of life to reflect every bit of his deceased wife's life, so that his clear memory of these life details naturally highlights his infinite thoughts about his deceased wife.
3. The moon is setting, the stars are sparse, and the sky is about to be bright. It is impossible to dream until the lamp is extinguished. ——Li Duan of the Tang Dynasty, "Girlfriend Love"
This describes the bitterness of a woman who misses her lover and stays up all night.
4. If you don’t see and think about me, you will not see your sorrow and thoughts. ——Xie Tiao of the Southern Dynasties, "Farewell to the King, Cheng, Monk, and Children"
Today, it is not because the other person will be gone that I miss him so much. What is really sad is that we can't see each other even though we miss each other so much.
5. The fallen flower man is independent, and the little swift bird flies together. ——"Linjiang Immortal" by Yan Jidao of the Song Dynasty
A man stood alone in the yard, watching the spring swallows flying together in the drizzle. This poem expresses the poet's longing for his former lover.
6. If you want to send colorful paper and ruler, you will know where the mountains are and the rivers are vast. ——Yan Shu, Song Dynasty, "Butterflies in Love with Flowers, Chrysanthemums on the Threshold, Smoky Orchids Weeping Dew"
I miss you very much and want to send you a love letter to express my full love and affection; but the mountain is long The water is vast and the road is far away. I don’t even know where you are?
7. There are three thousand pieces of Shu paper, and they always write about separation and love and send them to Meng Guang. ——Liu Jian of the Five Dynasties, "Jianglou Wangxiang Ji Nei"
This uses Meng Guang to refer to his extremely loving wife. I can't even write all the notes in Shu to express my deep thoughts about my wife. "Send to Meng Guang" is metonymic, using a specific code to refer to the common. It not only expresses the meaning of "send to wife", but also emphasizes the virtuousness of the wife.
8. The land of lovesickness cannot be shrunk, and the sky of separation and hatred cannot be made up. ——"The Legend of Immortals"
Huddled in the room can't block the love of lovesickness. Even with Nuwa's sky-repairing magic, it can't make up for the love of hatred. The pain of lovesickness can only be experienced by the loved ones themselves.
