双虹凌空
傍晚时分，东边小雨，
西边小晴，太阳雨共存，
即有欢情也有悲情。
就像聚沙可以成塔，
聚雨滴可以成彩虹桥，
斜阳是它的支撑。
这次是难得的双行道,
地上的灵魂可以上升，
天上的灵魂可以下行。
暗淡些的是往下的桥。
怎么回答为什么回来的发问？
所以还是尽量低调。
也许还有未完的事？
也许还有未还的债？
也许还有未了的情？
天黑后云都散尽，满天繁星，
有多有少，我常关注的那几颗
还在那儿眨眼睛。
Double Rainbow
In the evening, it rains lightly in the east.
It's sunny in the west.
Life is bittersweet, rain and/or shine.
Just as sand grains can be gathered together to form a tower,
gathering raindrops can form a rainbow bridge,
and the slanted sunrays are its pillars.
This time it's a rare two-way street.
Souls on earth can ascend.
Souls in heaven can descend.
The bridge going down is dimmer.
After all, people will ask why,
so try to be as low-key as possible.
Maybe there's still unfinished business?
Maybe there's an unpaid debt?
Maybe there's unresolved love?
After dark the clouds dispersed, sky full of stars.
Some newly added, some disappeared.
The ones I always look up to are still there, blinking.
