試追一年情詩─Then I Will Revive as Man

Perhaps not the first glance,
But eventually I fell into your mysterious eyes.
Like a feather,
Now I gently land on the Land of Perihelion,
Wherever I stand I am surged by your radiance,
Rays of enchanted spears pierce through my body,
There, where my true self lay,
Is perennial coldness on arid soils,
Barren lands rid of love and passion,
I would love to love, one but only one,
But I have been rid of my last drop of tear,
And my heart is forced to be mummified,
The agony and perturbation
Slaughtered me like a cold fish on plate.
Where are you now? Through my circular vision
I cannot find you. Yet images of you are plethora on my mind,
Oh my Goddess, my only Goddess,
Why won’t show your benevolence and life me,
To save me from this stranded vessel on ice.
I would dig a hole through the crystalised land,
And dive into another form of life,
A pelagic teleost fish, then I would swim to you
And one day, die in your sun.
Then I will revive as man, a man of knighthood,
Surrendered in your grace.
