a place for you
March 27, 2011
I wrote your name on paper someone erased it.
I engraved your name on a tree someone cut the tree.
I traced your name in the sand the waves washed it
I engraved your name in my heart...
it stayed

So sweet .Let me translate it in chinese. 我在纸上写下你的名字 他却被擦掉了。 我在树上刻下你的名字 树却被砍掉。 我在沙滩上画出你的名字 海浪把他带走。 我在心里刻下你的名字 他 留下
