I would like to ask them, p;nRxi7'
if they can remember - @J~hi\&`
perhaps in a revolving door 7LotN6H
face to face one day? C[X2]zr
A "sorry" in the crowd? OoIs'S-Z#
"Wrong number" on the phone? nC6 ;:uM

No, they don't remember. <D}yqq@|

Not quite yet ready *OM+d$l!

There were signs, indications, Bjc<d,]

this leaf flying pB;8yz=
from one shoulder to another? Kry^47"
Something was dropped and then picked up. |#i|BVnoE

他们都以为 f7v|N)
是那瞬间的感觉 E oh{+>:6
将他们结合在一起 3R?6{.

他们觉得彼此从未见面 qk_YFR?R
也许从来没有发生过任何联系 \rSofn#c
但那么多街道、楼梯、走廊 (Y~gItej
或者他们曾在哪儿擦身而过呢 $0,lE+7*

我想问问他们 "VgPaz#
是否记得在某个回转门 n _eN|m?@
那个面对面的瞬间? owe6ge7m
拥挤人潮中的那句「对不起」? a~wlD.P
或者电话里的一句「打错了」? RN ~pC
