Going home
Gu Cheng
I saw your hand//covering your eyes in the sun/I saw your hair/being covered by a hat/I saw the shadow cast by your hand/laughing/your car was put aside /Sam/ you don't know me/I left you for too long
I left you/because I was afraid. When you were asleep/I saw your tears/white flowers in your hand/I hit you/you said it was a naughty dad/you said: Fat likes me/you know everything
/Sam/ you don't know how much I miss you now/we are hugging your island across the sea/there is a grandmother tree on the island/and your toys/I want to hug you/when the night comes < This sentence is only for you/no one hears/loves you anymore, Sam/ I want to go home/you take me home
You are so young//I know/I will come back/see you/lift you up bit by bit /Sam, you are in the sunshine/I am in the sunshine
Note: Sam is the name of Gu Cheng's son. Fat is the birth name of Gu Cheng. My son likes to call him that. This is a poem he wrote to his son, and it is also the last soft light before the poet's darkness and madness.
