On the last day without classes, time trickles from my fingertips,
Gatherings, browsing, Twitter, Instagram, CNN, WeChat—
Suddenly, a day has slipped by.

I wander under the stars,
Wanting to weep, to confess to the fleeting time.
I seek magic, to dissolve the barriers between eternity and matter.
Yet I just wander under the stars,
Circling the park’s edge over and over,
Evading human eyes.

What a beautiful night,
Allow me to hide in silence!
What a beautiful night,
Allow me to quietly express a deeper longing—
Please let the term starts soon!

22 January 2023 in London

不上课的最后一天，时间点点的从指尖凋落
聚会，上网，推特，Instagram，CNN，朋友圈
恍然之间，一天已经过去

我在群星下彷徨，
想大哭一场，向流逝的时间忏悔
想寻求魔法，解除永恒与物质的界限
然而我只是在群星下彷徨，
沿着公园边界走了一圈又一圈，
躲过了人的视线

多美的夜啊
容我在沉默里潜藏！
多美的夜啊
容我悄悄说出更深沉的渴望——
快点开学吧。
