The Starry, Starry Night

那天逛书局,看到了几米的新作品《星空》。我站在那本书前面好久,并不是被20%折扣吸引,而是被封面短短的两行字留住了脚步 - 《孤单时,仍要守护心中的思念。有阴影的地方,必定有光。》
因为 《向左走。向右走》,我认识了几米。
因为《星空》,我看到了几米的细腻。

喝了Hazelnut Ice Blended Coffee失眠的凌晨三点钟,我翻开了《星空》。
简间单单的故事,精短细腻的文字。
心,开始恬静。
思绪,开始飘游。
最爱男女主角出走时的那几幅只画了他们背影的画面。
虽然最后男主角离开了,音讯全无,可是在女主角的心里却永远记得那年他们在一起的夏天,那最灿烂,最寂寞的星空。

把书合上,脑里竟不自觉地想起了王若琳翻唱的那首“Vincent” ~
Starry, Starry Night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul

Shadows on the hills
Sketch the tress and daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps, they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflect in Vincent's eye of China blue

Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hand

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps, they'll listen now

For they could not love you
And still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside on that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty hall
Frameless heads on nameless wall
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget

Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged man in ragged clothes
The silver thorn of bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I understand what you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen, they did not know how
Perhaps, they'll listen now

也许《星空》里的那个男主角是叫Vincent。
也许Vincent这首歌是《星空》里他和她的主题曲。

《那时候,未来遥远而没有形状,
梦想还不知道该叫什么名字。
我常常一个人,走很长的路,在起风的时候觉得自己像一片落叶。
仰望星空,我想知道;有人正从世界的某个地方朝我走来吗?
像光那样,从一颗星到达另外一颗星。

后来,你出现了。又离开了。
我们等候着青春,却错过了彼此......》 - 摘自几米-《星空

谢谢几米,从来都没有文字曾如此清晰描绘过我的感受。
昨晚,我睡得很甜。

我也好喜欢几米,希望这次回去有时间逛书店,可以拥有他的几本书。
Vincent这首歌有好多版本,我还是喜欢旧的版本。原来,我们有那么多共同喜欢的事物!

你还好吗

过去的一年里听到最多的问句是-“ 你还好吗? ” 我生了一场大病,是的,很大很大的一场大病。没有特别的症状,没有任何的准备,我的生活就这样的被按下了pause button。我已不敢回想过去的一年我是怎么过来的,身体上,心灵上,不管我愿不愿意,它们都一一的被狠狠的打掉重练。这就是...
