a Chinese character.

a Chinese character,

as I gaze at it

as I stares at it.

it opens itself 

It opens itself,

till I become aware of 

till I notices 

its most secret parts.

its most secret parts.

a Chinese character

a Chinese character 

opens itself 

opens itself

and closes itself.

and closes itself.

the interval 

the blank between them,

exhausts my entire life.

takes my life away.
