mùa thu gửi gió qua thềm
hỏi người vàng lá rơi chưa
gió ơi xuân thì mục rữa
hồn đã lá vàng thu xưa
...come earlier next life so i could love you more...

Time is very slow for those who wait.
Very fast for those who are scared.
Very long for those who lament.
Very short for those who celebrate.
But for those who love, time is eternal.

*Y.You:
Sometimes you were the tree
Sometimes you were the wind
The tree could not walk
And the wind couldn't talk either
Sometimes you were the child
Smile happily with a red balloon in little hand
Sometimes you were the copper statue
Let the deep rivers ran wild on big forehead
Sometimes you were my secret garden
With birds / bees / snails / spiders / butterflies
Season flowers kept blooming on the tree
Then suddenly the lonely tree could dance
And the silent wind could sweetly sing
It was a beautiful miracle, wasn't it?
Ah, the possibility how you could all-be!
...it's hidden in your eyes stupid...

If I could catch the green lantern of the firefly
I could see to write you a letter

*L. Love:
L is for "laughter" we had along the way
O is for "optimism" you gave me every day
V is for "value" of being my best friend
E is for "eternity" a love that has no end*
(J.P. Read)
*Just a thought: It has no end because Love is always new, therefore, it is its own eternity.:z58:
