A to Z
Auteur: Sijun Cui (Australie/Australia)

A familiar and strange city
Before I’m gonna face the clamors
Consciously I dotted my calm youth in a violet diary
Day is getting brighter
Eyes are shining with hope
Failures are road signs on the path to success
Granting that I haven’t noticed it
How should I go

I everyday long for a hug
Just a little romance
Keep my want in your mind
Love doesn’t need to explain
My love for you will be from A to Z
Now I wanna be
Offensive but
Perhaps I need more courage

Quitting the Internet, I tried to forget so many bored words
Rang a friend and went to movies
Said “hello” to a stranger staring at me
Tasted the hot food first time
Unable to cover up my smiling and joy from face to heart
“V” is a symbol of encouragement for me today
When I defeated the fear

“X”, “Y”, “Z” represent uncertainties
which I’d like to call them “future”, “love” and “life”

This poem is for young people.
The lyric expressed a young girl yearning for "future," "love" and
"real life." The poem starts with the sequence of Alphabet and is divided
into three parts corresponding to “future,” “love” and “life.”
You might be having a peep at a girl's diary, then speculating her
yearnings, perplexities, naiveness and more.
I would be grateful for your time to read it, and I am hoping you like it.
