My heart, this wild bird, finds the sky in your eyes.

Some losses are destined, and some fates will never bear fruit. Loving someone doesn't necessarily mean you can have them, but I just can't erase the bits and pieces you left in my heart.

I can't have too much, everything is just a fantasy.

The heart knows the pain of love, the night knows it, and the tears know it; the distance of love, the feet know it, the dream knows it, and the time also knows it. Gentle love is not rubbing but crushing; distant love is not footsteps but time; floating love is not mood but state of mind

If you ask me how deep I love you, the moon represents me heart. You asked me how true I am to you, I would faint without you.

Missing is a kind of happy sadness, a kind of sweet melancholy, and a kind of warm pain; missing is the long accumulation of yesterday and the longing for a beautiful future.

I am the most beautiful butterfly in his dream. Maybe he can’t give me great wealth, but he can give me a heart as fiery as a red rose and love to the end! This period once The text card with his body temperature and the delicate red rose really burned my heart for a time, making me intoxicated in the most romantic and vigorous whirlpool of love in the world of mortals.

A turn around, a firework, there is no eternal youth that cannot be returned, leaving only a faint fragrance of literature and ink, that is the deepest wound you have ever made in my heart.

It is you who are imprinted in my eyes, you are what is on my lips, you are in my hands, you are in my arms, you are in my heart, and I am thinking about you. It is you, the love in my life is still you, I love you forever

Meeting you in the mortal world of this life is what I have been looking forward to for thousands of years in the tunnel of time. Maybe it’s God’s deliberate care for you. I owe you the love I owed you in my previous life, and I will repay it twice as much in this life. Your beauty and kindness are rippling in my life. I dress up this quiet and fleeting time with infatuation and true love.

Love has not yet come, and life is carefree; the most painful things are just tests and examinations. I felt a lot of pressure at the time, but looking back later, I realized how small it was.

Happiness is a high mountain, a long river, and a blue sea.

We once enjoyed the moon together, played together, and climbed up and down on the long runway together! But now, the quiet passage of time has separated us from each other by the ocean. When the moon rises, I am thinking; what are you doing and who are you sleeping with?

I want you to know that as long as you run away, I will definitely chase you, no matter where you are, even in hell. Okay, no matter where you run to the end of the world, I will definitely catch you.

Love is the most important thing a person does when he comes to this world. If there is no love, is there any meaning in living? With love, people will miss this world even more.

Listening to a sad melody, I miss you quietly. Thinking of your hearty laughter always helps me drive away the clouds, but now I have been in the clouds for a few days, where are you? ?You said that when I miss you, you will miss me too. Are you sincere when you say this? I am silent.

The butterfly in the dream is flying, flying south and north------The butterfly in the dream is intoxicating, waiting for the beautiful woman to return. He said that after waiting for so many years, he finally got me.

Looking back, gradually fading away. When we always forget some traces of youth when we look back again and again, only the drawer in the study still contains the yellowed photos. That may be the most beautiful testimony of youth.

But, you have to leave, you have to go far away, you have to leave me alone. Let me shed all my blood, let me call tenderly, let me take out my heart and soul, let me move the world. But, I can’t move you anymore.

So, you came here on horseback, without stopping, walking along the flowery paths on the road; I danced with the wind, crossing thousands of rivers and mountains. In an instant, the cold memories of my previous life were melted by your warm eyes.

On this cold winter night, I suddenly felt the warm breeze blowing, and the butterflies fluttering, just like April in the world.

People say that the setting sun is the end of the world, but I can’t see my home even if I look to the end of the world. I already hate that the green mountains are blocking each other, and the green mountains are still covered by dusk clouds.

Who disturbed me lightly and left quietly in my dream.

In short, I remember everything about you. I will miss you forever from now on.

To you, I have surrendered unconditionally. Are you willing to sign a love contract?

Looking at your gradually blurring figure, I suddenly remembered that we met Ruomeng.

I don’t have a lifetime, but I can give you the brightest smile in your life.

Your tenderness in that moment passed by like fireworks.

But my confused mind cannot escape the roughness of love. In the pale night, there is always the merciless phantom of time swaying. I collect the beauty with my heart, but the beautiful long-cherished wish always passes me by. . So, love hurts, my heart is broken, and love quietly changes its appearance in the passage of time. I am also looking at it, stupidly sad, and grateful.

The Buddha said that looking back five hundred times in the past life is enough to pass by this life.

After seeing each other again, we meet again. I have the same dream with you several times. I only have a few silver jars left tonight to take pictures of, as if I was afraid that the encounter was a dream.

When we parted, we didn’t shed any lingering tears. We were speechless facing each other. Watch the sunset pass through the top of Wenfeng Tower and cast its afterglow on the bank of Xiqing River.

After the floating clouds parted ways, the water flowed for ten years. The laughter and love are as old as before, and the hair on the temples has become stained.

Mountains and oceans separate us, but I have no choice but to reunite with you in memories and meet you in dreams.

It is the arms that say goodbye, and the closer one is the heart.

The white waves give you flowers, the sunshine embraces you, the seagulls say goodbye to you, ah, the sea of ??life is setting sail with the ship of your youth.

Don’t ask, Youyoujun, after we say goodbye. There are countless things that can’t be said.

Tears of separation add new waves to the long river of memory; blessings of separation are the prelude to reunion again.

Don’t force yourself, tomorrow is nothing special! I just want you to be with me completely before I leave when you have time.

If you don’t look back, why don’t you forget? Since there is no fate, why do you need to swear all kinds of things today? Like water, there is no trace, no matter what tomorrow, you are no stranger.

I broke up with you today with a smile, and I hope to welcome you with a smile someday.

Although we met in a hurry and parted in a hurry, we have eternity in our short life. I believe that today’s friendship will be the best memory of tomorrow.

Come in a hurry, go in a hurry, leave in a thousand ways, looking forward to a reunion.

If it is still possible for you to pursue my figure in a moment of leisure, I would like to hide in the cocoon deep in the ground and sleep for another twenty years, and then break out of the cocoon in the warm sunshine of spring. Come out, turn into a pupa and turn into a butterfly, dancing gracefully for you beside the green grass under the blue sky.

Some people and some things are clearly engraved in the scenery along the way. I learned to be stable, to lie, to be calm, to be silent, and to be perseverant. The happiness in the tossing and turning was shattered into pieces of glass in a thousand twists and turns. I stood in the wind and swept them into the darkest corner of my heart. It didn't matter anymore.

As time goes by, many things have been forgotten without even realizing it. Those once familiar faces seem to have drifted further and further away in the wind of time, leaving only traces of memories scattered all over the place. The prosperity of yesterday can no longer be found. If you are used to seeing flowers bloom and fall, and the tide rises and falls, you will never see it again

Love is like a cup of milky coffee, fragrantly floating outside, sweetly floating on the surface, and sour inside. , sinking painfully to the bottom, vaguely reflecting you in the coffee.

The evening breeze blows across my face, a staggered flower season, buried in the mist, like the passage of time. I scattered the paintbrush in my hand, messing up the haze on the sunny day and finally turning it into a silhouette.

The past is like smoke, and a piece of sadness has messed up my world. When you lower your head, it has hurt the whole world.

Who arranged those mistakes again and again, or did I accidentally let the most beautiful moment be blown away by the wind? Maybe I am just the wind carrying a dream, but you are the drifting in the sky of clouds. Maybe you are just that drop that passes through the clouds and raindrops in the wind. Although we can meet each other heart-to-heart, we are powerless.

In this life, it is the loneliest thing not to meet each other. Met, still lonely. Look at the sad sentences, the flowers are blooming, I have survived another year. Lonely people always remember everyone who appears in their lives, just as I always think of you with unfinished meaning! What is not mine is not mine after all, I am your passerby after all. When you truly love something, you will find how fragile and powerless language is.

In that season of the year, I have long missed waiting. In the shadow of the trees after the cherry blossoms fall, I recall her beauty with the memory. If looking back for a thousand years can lead to a lifetime of staying together, I would like to be a flower tree next to you, with flowers blooming and falling every year, just for you to look back and those long and short sentences to drag down time little by little.
