Yes, just like what he said: My heart is as bright as the candlelight in front of your window----

Because of the wind

? Yesterday I strolled along the river bank

to the place where the reeds bent down to drink water

and called the chimney

? In the sky for I write a long letter

It’s a bit sloppy

But my heart

is as bright as the candlelight in front of your window

Slight ambiguity

Unavoidable

Because of the wind

Whether you can understand this letter or not is not important

The important thing is

You must get angry or laugh quickly before the daisies wither away

Hurry up and find my piece from the box Thin shirt

Hurry up and comb your dark and soft charm in the mirror

Then light a lamp with your whole life of love

I am fire

May go out at any time

Because of the wind

Beyond the smoke

Calling you in the sound of the waves name, and your name

is already beyond a thousand sails

The tide comes and goes

The shoe print on the left is only in the afternoon

The one on the right The shoe prints are already dusk

June is originally a very sentimental book

The ending is so poignant

——The sun sets in the west

You are still staring

The pure whiteness in that man’s eyes

He kneels to you, to the cloud that made the whole afternoon beautiful yesterday

Ocean, why among all the lamps

I light up that bewildered lamp alone

What else can I catch?

Your eyes that were once called clouds

are now called

smoke

Lots of noise

< p> And you are the one closest to me

The quietest and most gentle one

If you want to see it, just look at the lotus

I like it Look at you holding a green oil umbrella

rising from the water

I gently threw a stone towards the center of the pool

< p> Your face

turned red in an uproar

Startled

A water bird

flew across the other side like a flame Willow branch

Come closer

Just come closer to me

You can hear it

Water drops are dripping in your palm Sliding around

You are the quietest flower in the noisy lotus pond

The sunset

The cicadas still chirp

p>

Still as quiet as you were when you were alone in the lotus

I left, but stopped halfway

Waiting for you

Waiting You call me softly
