再 别 再 见
文 / 于 山
想要讲的从开头都已经讲清楚了,而且尽着我自己最大的努力去实现言行一致。情境在变,认知在变,人在变——“变”原本的确就是事实,是常态。可另一个也是事实:有些人,一生未变;有些人,老是在变。

Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds

(出自 Sonnet 116: Let me not to the marriage of true minds——by William Shakespeare)
你与我分享的诗,很美!但我也不会因为美丽的诗句而回(到过)去。
If you forget me
——by Pablo Neruda
I want you to know
one thing.
You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.
Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.
If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.
If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.
But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.

九岁离家开始求学,每次别离都会忍不住痛哭流涕,三两年换一个地方的童年、少年、青少年……我曾以为离家远足的才是艰难的,如今才明白“儿行母忧”的道理。如果是同样在乎了的情谊,于离开的人,和被离开的人,都是一样的。获取一个学位,完成一项工作,结束一段旅程,这才刚刚开始,站在十字路口的你,必定是在走向一个更加美好的自己!
剑桥今再别,江湖后再见。
