生命之树

彧蛇/加拿大

有多少记忆

簇拥着我日渐苍凉的灼恋

来不及倾听花开的声音

就无止境地，衰颓下去

有多少欲望

装扮成静默时光里的浮躁

与城市的霓虹一起失眠

消失在，拂晓的晨风里

假如生命早已生根

请打消逐命天涯的执念

如果生命能够蜕变

就让我诠释，一株风雨中的伫立

天空，飞过一群鸿雁

瞬间就扇动了我翱翔的本能

但我无法撕裂自己的臂膀

唯有把绿色的渴望，高高举起

阳光，投射在枝叶的缝隙

也许，那份斑驳，正是此刻的心境

此起彼伏，是知了的倾诉

把夏日唱的很近，却

又似乎遥远的，了无痕迹

我是一位隐忍的见证者

重复翻阅着那本只有四页的书籍

如果终将凋零，请别为我落泪

飘落时的弧线

将，划出一个崭新的天际

Tree of Life

By Shadow Snake (Canada)

How much memory

Surrounded by the increasingly bleak love burning

Were dejected without end in sight

Having had no time to listen to the sound of blooming

How much desire

Masquerade as impetuous in time of silence

Disappeared in the morning breeze

Having suffered from insomnia with neon lights as alliance

If life has already taken root

Please dispel the obsession of seeking out the world

If life can transform itself

Let me be, a tree standing tall in the gusting wind uncurled

Flying across the sky, I saw a flock of geese

In an instant, it fanned my instinct to fly

But I could not tear apart my branches

I could only let the desire of green be held high

Sun rays, projected in the gap between branches

Perhaps is quite fitting for the current state of mind

It’s the sound of confession of cicadas

brought the summer very close, yet

It seemed very distant with nothing outlined

I am a witness of forbearance

Repeatedly flipping through the book with only four pages

If fading away is inevitable, please don't cry for me

The arc of descending through the air

Will surely draw a brand new dawn for the ages
