Revolution

聽了一個故事, 感觸很深, 十年的時間可以轉變很多了吧?!... 回想起自己, 原來所謂的「起起跌跌」並不算什麼... 我是一個相信諾言的人, 大多數的女人也是如此了吧?! 我渴望有天能穿上嫁衣, 說一聲「我願意」, 然後和深愛的人共渡餘生... 這不只是一個理所當然的儀式, 我覺得它是很神聖、很潔淨的, 那是一段感情、一份愛的昇華... 於是我一直不明暸, 怎麼有些相愛很深的人卻堅持的不步入教堂, 這不是很自私了嗎?

可是今天終於明白, 原來有些人是真的不相信「結婚」這回事的... 不是害怕承諾, 也不是在逃避責任... 只是真的不相信罷了...

謝謝疼愛著我的爸媽, 令今天的我仍堅信自己能夠擁有一個幸福的家...

也謝謝深愛的您, 總不讓我的希望落空...

It has been so many nights, sitting here by myself
Hearing the sound of silence. The heart beat. The breathe
Melodizing harmonically
The pulse under the chest, vibrating the ribs

The upper spine. The neck. The skull. The scapular. The shoulders

The arms. The hands on the knees. The thighs. The legs
Swaying the torso backward and forward
The cool air. Skimming over the skin. Fanning my lightless hair

I raise my head. Let the moonlight pouring on my face
A sense of calmness. Peace
I gaze at the deep darkness. Waiting. Waiting for that fleeting moment

Then the moon gets bigger and bigger

The periphery stretches out inch by inch
The soft brightness. Dispreading to the darkness. Covering the endless sky
Then the scenery swirls before my eyes
Then the landscape starts rotating. Spinning about my feet
Then the moon whispers. Asking me to be still. Be still

*** I just finished this prose poem as the assignment of Dance History, writing about "motion" - anything that could move or could be still.....
