朗讀IG上的詩文人朗讀IG上的詩文人：236 @cheuk.l走在下著滂沱大雨的街道，人煙稀少的，冷清清的。我撐著黑色雨傘，戰戰兢兢的怕弄濕了新穿的布鞋。
雨變得稍為少了，雨下得沒那麼密集，我低頭看到雨滴落在地上水潌時的波動，很有規律的展開，再瞥見散落一地上零碎的垃圾，然後我望向前方繼續前行，我感覺到我身為一個個體存在在這個世界上，沒有任何事物圍繞我身邊，周圍所有事情都有它們存在的原因，而所有其他人都有他們行動的目的。而這一切都很安靜並且優雅地運行著。
孤獨依然在我內心深處徘徊，確確實實讓我感受到，但它並沒有讓我感到困惑，像是我清楚了解自己的感受是怎樣的，我並沒有刻意抑壓住，而是任由這種孤獨的感覺䆁放，不去抗拒，不去騷擾，不去掩飾，這樣反倒不會被它吞噬我的心靈。
我繼續往目的地前行著，什麼都沒有做，只是反覆在想著一些事情。
