Your
Pain
Untold secrets
whisper
To me through pleading
eyes
And with my words I
console
Speaking worthless
lies
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Can’t help you ease your
pain
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Nor pull you up
again
This feeling of being
useless
Is drowning me in
tears
And I can only wish that
I
Could smooth away your
fears
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Can’t help you ease your
pain
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Nor pull you up
again
I want you to believe
me
And I want to
understand
Don’t want this to end
badly
This wasn’t what we
planned
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Can’t help you ease your
pain
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Nor pull you up
again
Your smile seeks to
reassure
But it doesn’t reach your
eyes
To this day you’re still
unsure
And will always wonder
why
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Can’t help you ease your
pain
I’m sorry I can’t help
you
Nor pull you up
again
We knew it was
forbidden
From the very first day we
met
And yet still it came
unbidden
And from then our fate was
set
Broken promises – empty
lies
I loved you and love you
still
My only comfort to you
is
That I know I always
will
快满十五岁的童话写了几首新诗,这已是六年前的事了。那个时候,童话爱写,我成了她的专职翻译。不是她情,而是我愿。我天天追着她,“有没有写新的故事呀?有没有写诗呀?”童话的故事我勉强翻得,也翻译了不少,但诗歌实在不是我的长项。一般来说,遇到湿(诗),我就干,口舌发干,需要转身喝口水,开溜。但童话的诗例外,谁让她是我的女儿不是?
这首诗写罢童话很喜欢,拿给她的同学看。她的同学们读了也喜欢,还有一位同学直接要去送了男朋友。童话说她最喜欢最后一段,可能是我的英文水平有限,很难体会出她想说的意境,还有她的喜欢。
这诗通读下来,满篇都是两个相爱的人分手的痛苦。那么痛苦了,都,干嘛还分手?唉,年轻人的爱情,不懂。
不过,诗读起来倒是朗朗上口的,它让我想起了我最喜欢的那首英文歌《APOLOGIZE*道歉》。这首歌,无论何时何地,我只要听到,心还会随着歌声一起一伏。
