your love is one apology added to another, equal to the one that I glean like a beggar but I couldn’t bear to swallow that apology with another
that is my love
sorry the only footnote for our relationship

林玉鳳 我們的對不起
你的愛情 是一個對不起加另一個對不起再等於 我拾荒者般撿到 郤嚥不下的 一個對不起加另一個對不起的 我的愛情
對不起 是我倆的唯一註釋 |

you cut open the grapefruit cutting carefully like tearing down my cocoon the grapefruit is opened into two red suns I feel so free
flying out from the cocoon like the summer butterfly flowers are full of my eyes sweet as the grapefruit’s red the two pieces of the fruit stay firm together plentiful like the smile of first love it’s thus I fall in love with red
you cut the grapefruit into eight pieces red mouthful by mouthful it’s like eating my sweetest memories I take up the last segment and kissing this last piece of red my heart becomes pale
the taste of a grapefruit like your love to me surprisingly sweet and plump to see bitter to the taste like sorrow
when there is no more flesh in the grapefruit the inner skin of the fruit is so pale as to make me cherish that sugary smile of the red fruit that was
I hold the pale skins in my hand mind and eye bringing back the original it’s like letting the cocoon wrap my body and now I can see the outer skin of the grapefruit was never red at all |
林玉鳳 紅西柚
你把西柚切開 細細的 就像弄開我的繭 西柚落成兩瓣紅日 我感到好自由 像破繭的夏蝶 眼下盡是花色 甜潤如柚紅 兩瓣紅西柚靠著 像對初戀的微笑 飽滿而豐盛 我愛上了紅色
你把西柚切成八個小角 一口一口的吃掉柚紅 像吃掉我最甜美的回憶 我拿起最後的一個小角 吻著最後一片柚紅 心裏很蒼白 西柚的味道 居然像你對我的感情 看的時候甜潤 吃的時候甘苦淡淡 如愁 其實 去掉紅肉的西柚 內皮也一樣的蒼白 叫人懷念 甜 笑的一瓣柚紅
我把蒼白小角合在手心 讓西柚還原本來的形狀 像重新讓繭裹在身上一樣 這才看到 西柚的外皮 原來不是紅色的 |
