声声令·咏风筝（自述身世）　

柳如是

KITE,  MY LIFE STORY

In dazzling flowers

My dreams return

Which is the most stunning

In spring light?

When the sky is cloudless

My heart

the most restless

Sometimes rain-

Clouds move low

I fly up high

Fears of being

Lost

Bright sun

Before my studio

Thin thread singing

In slanting

Wind

!

No matter how far

How high you fly

I see shadows

Of two lovers

Tangled in passion

Unable to part

What ties you

To me?

A thin thread?

Or

Soul

???

Without answers

I turn to ask

The dreamy

Trees
