If there are one thousand causes for my heart resonates pains, how many of them are because of you? “It’s just… one day, I realize that I can’t fit into anyone’s life, everything feels so absurd and awkward. Believe me,…. I did try to let go of your hands and to erase all my feelings […]

Áng mây của ai, trôi về nơi đâu
Có lẽ ngay cả lúc ấy cả tôi và anh đều không nhận ra rằng chúng tôi cần nhau trong đời hoặc ít nhất một ai đó cạnh bên trong suốt những tháng ngày dài của cuộc đời này… Đêm ấy, tôi ngắm nhìn gương mặt anh say ngủ kề bên, “Anh có phải là […]
Love as lost in the river of no return
Have you ever been held by your lover’s hands? I mean in the way that every moment seems to fade into eternity and your eyes will forever be tracing the image of your hands intertwined together? When your hands grab mine with all the fondness, wildness, and eternal reverence as if we’re about to descend […]
Hold me closer to you, even though the despair days shall come soon
Schopenhauer considers that suffering is a part of human fate. It’s something as innate as waking up or going to bed, not a mighty “ordeal” which you overcome and then be rewarded by an all-knowing god. Human beings are meant to be the word “despair” itself and then the end of the story. Maybe that’s […]

That night, I suddenly woke up at 3:29 in the morning. At some moments, I believed I had been dreaming since everything was so serene, as still as someone just pressed the mute button, and things went subdued. What I dreamt about that night? I have no idea. My mind immediately went blank after I […]
Goldfish and I
The tired washing machine was humming in the neon light. I looked down at my watch, and it was already 4 in the morning. The couple living next door may already hate me, but it doesn’t matter anyway. For no reason, I find nearly dawn is the perfect time for doing laundry. I lay down […]
Goldfish
Sometimes I really wish that I could turn into a goldfish. What does it do for the whole day long? Nothing much. Simply swimming around the bowl aimlessly and since it has short-term memory, nearly nothing can disturb its heart. A life that can only last for about ten to fifteen years doesn’t seem too […]
My Dearest X
One person may end up being with another for many reasons that we can’t tell for sure whether they are good or bad. There are also millions of chances that their paths will never cross, which means there is no such thing as the fated love. If you miss a certain “check-point”, you miss it […]
