If I have never had a warm feeling of taste, maybe I will not cold. If I did not feel too sweet love, I maybe would not have to pain. If I did not encounter the kind-pei girl. If I have never not left my room, I would not know I was such a lonely.
如果我从没有品尝过温暖的感觉,也许我不会这样寒冷;如果我从没有感受过爱情的甜美,我也许就不会这样地痛苦;如果我从来不曾离开过我的房间,我就不会知道我原来是这样的孤独。
