MEET ON PAPER
By Nan Yue
As a child
not steady on my legs
I was bursting to run
because little did I think
After grew up
I can scamper but
stopped off for a while
because too much did I think
When didn't konw who am I
I should see you at once
though I couldn't find self
Were you anxious to see me
I'm not the very one you are after
Among lovers discourse
I built ladder with words
climbed up to hill top
glided down to valley below
The game enough to loss lonesome memory
We can only meet on paper
Los Angeles,2016/ Translated by Chen Zihong
中文原诗：
【纸上见】
小的时候
还没站稳的我
就已急着奔跑
因为我想的很少
大了以后
可以奔跑的我
却停下脚步
因为我想的太多
不知道我是谁的时候
急着去见你
却找不到自我
你急着来看我的时候
我已经不是你要找的那个
围城里
我用文字码梯
自由地爬上山巅
痛快地飘入谷底
这游戏足以让寂寞失忆
我只能在纸上见你
