sometimes

(photo from web)

Sometimes when I look at you,

I feel I'm gazing at a distant star.

It's dazzling, but the light

is from tens of thousands of years ago. 

　

Maybe the star doesn't even exist any more. 

Yet sometimes 

that light seems more real to me than anything.

― Haruki Murakami, South of the Border

有時，當我看著你

我覺得我在凝視著遙遠的星晨

如此閃亮，但這光

是來自千萬光年之遙處

也許這顆星甚至已然不存在

然而，有時

這光對我而言，似乎比什麼都更真實
