Before sunset, this was our school building.
The annual Moon Cycle Festival was held here. Flocks of doves and colorful ribbons once soared across the sky together.
The poetry club sang of youth, the orchestra played the yueqin, and lovers kissed beneath the seven-leaf trees.
Then a meteor fell, and disaster struck. The world gained boundaries.
The wilderness split open, skyscrapers crumbled, and the sun hung beyond the mountains, like a sunken ship of civilization slowly capsizing.
At the moment of sunset, I saw the end of the world.
The reddish dusk enveloped me. I knew I could only go on alone.
The dim night enveloped me. I walked into the depths of despair,
and I knew you were there.
