The Stranger

I saw them more clearly than I had ever seen anyone, and not one detail of their faces or their clothes escaped me. But I couldn’t hear them, and it was hard for me to believe they really existed.

“I wanted all things
To seem to make some sense,
So we could all be happy, yes,
Instead of tense.
And I made up lies
So that they all fit nice,
And I made this sad world
A par-a-dise.”

“Cái chết là một dấu chấm hết. Dấu chấm hết nào cũng muốn mang ý nghĩa của cái câu đi trước nó. Tôi muốn biết mình là ai để ngày tôi chết tôi biết rằng ai đã chết”

“Chưa bao giờ tôi mệt như chiều hôm nay, tất cả trôi lềnh bềnh, tôi ngạt thở, tôi nằm dài trên giường trong cơn hấp hối tuyệt vọng. Sống, sống lên, tôi mệt quá rồi, mây trắng vẫn còn bay?”

“Just as bad poets, in the second half of a line, look for a thought to fit their rhyme, so people in the second half of their lives, having become more anxious, look for the actions, attitudes, relationships that suit those of their earlier life, so that everything will harmonize outwardly. But then they no longer have any powerful thought to rule their life and determine it anew; rather, in its stead, comes the intention of finding a rhyme.”
