A Deep Love: Cherishing and Not Entangling
Writer | Chen Gui · Broadcaster | Mo Qing · Photographer | Yinren · Editor | Yi Bai
Throughout life's journey, we experience countless people and things, including hurried passersby, lovers cherished in the depths of our hearts, unspoken confessions, and emotions we long to let go of but can't.
Over time, perhaps we don't need answers or reasons. I would like to use my limited life to deeply and passionately love you in the deepest corners of this world, to immerse your name in wine, to drink with the wind and rain, letting this intoxication fill my affections, I want to integrate you into my blood, to feel the rhythm of your heartbeat, regardless of sorrow or joy, I want to wholeheartedly recount our joys and sorrows together.
There's a kind of love that's a quiet longing, not entangled. This emotion is even more painful than heartbreak, yet it can only be hidden within the heart, unwilling and unable to be shared with anyone. My yearning has become dust, my soul has ascended as smoke, but my heart remains with you, filled with your sweet smile.
I'll wait for you on the Bridge of Helplessness, waiting for your loving gaze to pass over my heart's lake. You are like a thorn slowly piercing my heart, refusing to remove it, accompanied by a heartbeat, it throbs with pain, removing it will leave an irreparable hole!
There's a kind of love that's a quiet longing, I fill you into the empty chambers of my heart, because there's a position that cannot be replaced, inhabited by a name that is both distant and familiar, thinking of you, remembering you, keeping you in my heart, once a person enters the heart, a love-stricken heart will be unforgettable.
Perhaps it’s out of dignity, we can only choose to leave, perhaps because we've fallen into dust, we can only reluctantly let go. But we can still think of you, think about you, long for you, but never entangle ourselves, keeping this emotion hidden within our hearts.
Even Zhang Ailing said: ‘Loving someone makes you humble to the dust, and then bloom flowers in the dust.’
There's a kind of love that's a quiet longing, because we have too much consideration, we can only hide this love in the depths of our souls. I don't expect any promises from you, just for my lonely heart to find a temporary harbor.
Time is indeed a good medicine, it will settle the most beautiful emotions and the purest feelings. In my multi-faceted words, I will weave your name into poetry, write your story as a distant tale, compose a melody to love you across the seas. Only by letting the tears of sorrow fall on your photos, not entangled, wishing you happiness and joy, living freely and calmly!
Grateful for all beautiful encounters, grateful for the warm sunshine that once warmed my life! Some things stop at the lips and teeth, hidden by the years, let everyone be well.
