我不能证明岁月有脚
作者:艾米莉·狄金森 [美]
我不能证明岁月有脚——
然而确信它们奔跑,
证据是刚完成的序列,
已成为过去的征兆——
我发现脚有更远的目标——
我对一些目的发笑——
昨天,它们似乎宏伟——
今天,要求已更高——
我不怀疑昨日我的自我
曾经和我完全相称——
但是匹配不当,证明——
已落后于我的生命——
I could not prove the Years had feet
By Emily Dickinson [American]
I could not prove the Years had feet-
Yet confident they run
Am I, from symptoms that are past
And Series that are done-
I find my feet have further Goals-
I smile upon the Aims
That felt so ample-Yesterday-
Today's-have vaster claims-
I do not doubt the self l was
Was competent to me-
But something awkward in the fit-
Proves that-outgrown-I see-
