hey 250 is it a translation?
and would that account for the need to (add) words that
didn't exist in the original language , but are needed to be understandable once translated?

it is a translation.
there s one problem about translations is, rythm and tune exists in one language might not sound as good in another. this poem has a powerful emotion when reading in chinese, however, it does not have the same effect in english.

To The Dearly Beloved

Death is no stranger to us
Nor is it unknown
But when it strikes
It always cathces us by suprise

And the beloved person is gone, forever

How are we going to remember
The ones we see no more
Our minds and hearts
Don't do good clinging on to the past]

Whatever you do, whatever you try, it fades away slowly into the sands of time

We WILL forget, no matter what
The names deeds, actions will be made void
And yet still, they live on
For we have taken a part of them with us

We take their spirit with us, which remembers, but it knows no time, place, or name

They live on
Without us knowing it
We still live on for them
And they will live, forever

Memories won't do, it is what they instill in our hearts taht will count. Always.

I think i have never written a poem here that aint mine.

Balls, balls no balls at all, she married a man that had no balls at all,
her mother said "well come now dear daughter and don't be a sap, I had the same trouble when I married your Pap, there's many a man that will come to the call....to the wife of the man with no balls at all".

One love, peace.

I went walking
through a field
I found a flower, and looked inside
I found you

I went walking
through a forest
I found a tree, and looked inside
I found you

I went walking
on a beach
I found a shell, and looked inside
I found you

I went walking
through a dream
I looked inside
I found you

-1990 what can I say? I was in love
