When we two parted I read a poem " when we two parted"by George Gordon Byron today and I was moved a lot. There is a sentence which made me impressed most " if I should see you, after a long year.How should I greet,with tears,with silence". We can never write such a beautiful poem if we haven't experience parting.I think the girl who Byron missed is lucky ,because she left him though and she still live in his heart. Imagine that if the person who left you very long time show up sunddenly with his familiar smile and smell,what would you do? I guess I can't speak anything at the moment with all emotion flocking to my mind ." With tears ,with silence".There will be too many words to say,but we always start with"How are you", a simple but profound question. It occurs me that a poem by a famous Chinese poet Liu Yong in Song Dynasty ,named "雨霖铃”.It includes a sentence "执手相看泪眼,竟无语凝噎”,conveying a same feeling with Byron . I'm inclined to be sentimental in winter.

When we two parted

I read a poem " when we two parted"by George Gordon Byron today and I was moved a lot.
There is a sentence which made me impressed most " if I should see you, after a long year.How should I greet,with tears,with silence".
We can never write such a beautiful poem if we haven't experience parting.I think the girl who Byron missed is lucky ,because she left him though and she still live in his heart.
Imagine that if the person who left you very long time show up suddenly with his familiar smile and smell,what would you do? I guess I can't speak anything at the moment with all emotion flocking to my mind ." With tears ,with silence".There will be too many words to say,but we always start with"How are you", a simple but profound question.

Hi, The sentence which made you impress reminded me about a well-known Chinese love story named "You are my sunshine" that I've read and love it so much . In this story the main girl character left her boyfriend without a word , but, the man still loved her until they met again accidentally. It is difficult to well behave in this case especially when someone left you without a word and you considered they betrayed you and it made a serious hatred inside you but you still love them... We have a same sentence in a Vietnamese song that "If I saw you after a long time, I would pretend that everything was be fine and I was fine as I am used to..." Have a nice day.
