导读：This poem is about someone whom I deeply cared about. The feelings were never returned, but I learned that with or without his love, I could make it and always remain strong and happy.

Words of wisdom come to my ears,

智慧之语穿过我的耳朵，

Telling me what I know in my heart, 

告诉我一些我心中早已明白，

But never wanted to hear.

却不愿去相信的一番话。

With the truth finally said and out in the open for me to plainly see,

当真言终于被道出，并展现于我面前，使我不得不现实地面对时，

I wonder why I can love so deeply but never had that love returned back to me.

我问自己为什么我会爱得如此深切，而那爱情却从未走向我。

I confessed the feelings that I held inside for so long,

我坦然告白埋藏于心中已久的那份情感，

But with his soft- hearted rejection, 

但在他温柔的宛然拒绝声中，

I realize I have to be strong.

我认识到我必须坚强。

With tears that want to flow from my eyes,

当眼泪欲夺眶而出时，

I feel that my heart, along with my composure, slowly dies.

我感觉到我的心在沉静中慢慢熄灭。

While this dramatic side is showing through with my ability to question and reason,

这时，一个坚强的声音伴随着我理智的思考再现，

I think I may have found something in me that I can believe in.

我可能已经找到我对自己的信心。

Love hurts . . . 

爱情痛心…

That's what they all say,

人们都这样说，

But I will love again when all this pain and sorrow goes away.

但是当所有这些伤与痛消却之时，我要再次去爱。

So I sit and think of all the things this situation has cost,

于是我坐下来，思考着所有这一切能带来的影响，

And I realize that nothing very important has been lost.

我骤然发现原来自己并没有失去任何重要的东西。

Instead, a learning experience has come from all this.

相反，我从中收获了经验和智慧，

I've learned that hardly anything is more important than my happiness.

我已经明白：生活中没有任何事情比自身的快乐更重要。

 No matter who you are, where you are, I wish every one of us is learning to be stronger.

不论你是谁，身在何处，我希望我们每个人都在学着更坚强。
