这样的时刻

《这样的时刻》| 双一

车在暴雨中疾驰

挡风玻璃密密匝匝的敲打声

如曾经的梦魇中

震耳欲聋的白噪音

我被囚在沉睡与苏醒之间

叫喊却发不出声音

过去生命的某个节点

我曾困于前进与后退

之间细细的钢丝绳

世界如暴雨砸来

而今天

偶然在这样的车上这样的时刻

回首行程

我开始怀疑看不见的东西

譬如，也许我一直拥有一辆

装有挡风玻璃的车子

和一张宽广的床

我在惊恐中翻了个身

并没有摔下深渊

而在岁月滂沱的噪声里滑行

A Moment Like This

by Jacob Yang

The car is racing in a rainstorm

The knocking sound on the windshield

Reminds me of the deafening white noise in those nightmares

Where I was stuck between sleep and awakening

Screaming with no voice

At certain point of my life

I was stuck on a thin steel rope

Caught between stepping forward and retreat

And the world smashed on me like a heavy rainfall

But today

In a moment like this in such a car

Looking back on life

I start to suspect things I couldn't see

Such as, maybe I was always in a car with windshield

And in a bed with wide frame

I rolled over, totally frightened

But did not fall into an abyss, rather

I was cruising in the loud noise of time
