AFTER LOVE
- Sara Teasdale
There is no magic any more,
We meet as other people do,
You work no miracle for me
Nor I for you.
You were the wind and I the sea
There is no splendor any more,
I have grown listless as the pool
Beside the shore.
But though the pool is safe from storm
And from the tide has found surcease,
It grows more bitter than the sea,
For all its peace.
爱过 -Sara Teasdale
魔法不复存在,
我们像其他人一样
随遇而安,
你不是我的奇迹
我也不是你的传奇。
你是曾经的那阵风
我是曾经的那片海。
没有了华丽的光彩,
我日渐成为你的可有可无,
就像那海岸边的浅滩。
尽管浅滩是安全的所在,
远离了肆虐的风暴,
远离了寻衅的潮汐,
但为了这份完全的安宁,
她的苦涩哀怨
却远甚至那大海。
