【岁末壁炉边小叙】
文/天朝玉
我将内心的欢愉与寂寥
编织在一起
用字打成一个个绳结
与你的连在一起
我们便有了日月经纬
有了一座风雨朝夕的心城
里面住着比现实更真实的你
比现实更真实的我
硕大苍茫的世界
我们仿佛是两个
漂游在大海里的分子
相遇是千万分之一的可能
我们竟然中了头彩
除了感恩与庆幸
还能期望什么呢
有些人每天都在交流
却听不到对方的一句心声
我们在字里对话
每个字都叩击着心灵的琴键
是的 你不能抚摸我的手 我的脸
可你字里行间的柔情
触动着我的心
【Fireside Chat at Year End】
By Tian Chao Yu
I knit my inner joy and loneliness together
tie them into knots with words
with your knots connected with mine, we then
have the sun and the moon, latitude and longitude
we have a city of hearts, with wind and rain
day and night, inside live you and me
more truthful than reality
Similar soul and energy
in this vast world
as if two molecules drifting in the sea
such an encounter is a ten-millionth probability
however, we hit the jackpot
feeling thankful and lucky
how could we expect anything else?
Some people communicate everyday
but couldn’t hear the voice from one’s heart
we may only talk in words
but every word taps on the keyboard of a soul
yes, you could not touch my face and my hand
but your tenderness between the lines
touches my heart
