Example 1:
To a Student Leaving a Math Teacher
When I saw you at 16 to study math, asking
around beside you as you taught in front of a big
blackboard, my own mouth rounding in surprise when
you answered the difficult question of the homework,
I kept thinking for the contents of your teaching as I
started to deal with the question, while I became older, more
clear about math, cheering, cheering for my scores, screaming
with laughter, the smile beaming behind you like a moon
Example 2: To a Teacher Leaving School
When you told me
at 18 to write
an article, walking around
beside me
as I fell asleep
on the cozy chair,
my own mouth watering
in shock when you punched
strongly
top of my head,
you kept murmuring
for the snoring
of my nap as I
continued to nod off,
while you grew
older, more vulnerable
with disease,
deteriorating, deteriorating
for your body, suffering
with pain,
the hair falling
from you like the
silk tearing
apart.
To My Students Leaving School
Carolyn
When I first met you
in the very same classroom, expecting to see a group of
gentle students with literary talents, stunned at your vigor,
at the dynamic and loud class atmosphere,
at the blunt, critical comments about the world,
at the sophisticated jokes, I couldn’t but like you
immediately,
while you got more indulged in the cozy environment,
Enjoying your life to the fullest, laughing, joking, fooling,
sleeping, playing, idling,
with me standing in front of you like a zookeeper who
couldn’t bear to see them tamed.
To Stan Lee Leaving Our World
New Boy
When I first saw Iron Man movie, I marveled at this incredible work,
then I realized this all came from your marvelous comics. Hulk, X-Men, Fantastic Four, Ant Man, Falcon…
I’m fascinated to these Marvel characters and they all came from your crazy mind. But now, we lost you.
What a sorrow that, from now on,
we can’t see you in new Marvel studio movies anymore. Although you went to another world,
Your masterpiece would circulate forever and ever. Thank you, Stan Lee.
To Leaves Leaving the Tree
PT
When you were new born,
you were satisfied with the satisfactory nutrition.
When you grew bigger day after day,
you were asked to work hard to prove you worthy.
When you reached adulthood,
you started bearing enormous workload.
Finally, you jumped from the treetop,
turning into fertilizers after you grounded.
Then, you would find yourself not alone,
‘cause you would realize
To the Fish Bone Leaving Sea
苡汶
SinceI left you at the seabed, I’ve been watching
beside you. As sand covers
on top of you, I squinted my eyes to look for you, while one day the crust
suddenly rose — squeezing and squeezing, higher, higher. You left the ocean,
lying on a mountain in silence, then picked up for analysis.
How many ages have you lived? Two billion years of waiting there, you finally are displayed and appreciated behind the glass in the museum.
To Myself Leaving You
Min Min
The maple leaves turn red and the wind turns cold. That’s the season I’m going to leave you.
Two years ago, You stepped into my heart. Since the moment, you’ve never gone out. Your words made me feel warm
and your smile made my heart beat.
With you, I feel overwhelming love and happiness. However, the distance tore our hearts.
I can see your face, I can hear your voice but I can’t feel the warmness of your chest.
Countless nights full of tears,
but I still choose to love you.
Sorry that I’m going to leave you.
These terrible days are going to go on.
China is not so far, but far enough for us.
I will look after myself,
so please take good care of yourself.
I love you, I miss you, I will be back for you,
and you will always be in my heart.
To the One Leaving My Heart
邱宸
When I asked you to leave the party at eleven, you left me a message without explanations,
saying that you can’t endure me keeping complaining, complaining that I don’t let you go out with friends. You are going to leave me alone
because I’m not the place like home.
I am not the person that you want to keep long. I’m still calm,
although I have made an anniversary song. If I couldn’t keep your heart for my own, I had better let you go.
To the Person Leaving Us
芷妘
Like the meeting of the butterflies and the flowers we meet and come near. The butterflies fly off, the flowers wither and we depart.
To a Girlfriend Leaving Me
譽凱
When I cooked dinner
to celebrate our anniversary, you told me
you needed to go to the party with Andy. Jumping into his awesome Ferrari,
you laughed and called me to go to sleep.
I kept waiting for the stop
of the Ferrari as I
sprinted to give Andy a punch,
while you grew
smaller, more breakable with distance,
screaming with joy, the exhaust sound from the car like a mock to me. But, I still

To a Student Leaving School
京元
When I taught you
at sixteen to eighteen to do
math, standing on the podium
in front of you
as you focused on
doing exercises in the textbook,
my own mouth rounding
in surprise when you solved
the problem that no one
could work out in the class,
I kept waiting
for the day you
suffered from the predicament as
I helped you to walk away from it,
while you grew
stronger, more intelligent,
it’s time to let you go
and follow your dreams
To You Leaving Me 0+1
I have a dream that I built a castle in my dream. I made the walls with sandwich biscuits.
The stages were made of pastry.
The floor were strewn with chocolate flakes.
In the middle of the room was a large strawberry sponge cake. The jelly chandeliers shone like rays of jewels.
What an amazing castle but it seemed insufficient to my dream.
One day, you came.
You were the most special visitor for me.
We could wander along the cotton candy garden, Hear the whispers from the minty forest and
Smell the enchanting winds just like pineapple juice. I was to happy and wished that we could stay together
But then, you were hungry.
You bit the chocolate macaron rocks,
Drinking the soda lake and eating up our dream yard slowly,
Without hesitation. You finally ate it all.
MY TEARS MY BLOOD MY HARDWORK MY TRUST MY TIME
My dream became a ruin, but you were already gone.
To Little Bean Leaving the World
郁絜
I really miss those days we got together.
Memories pour into my mind, but they can just be memories. I’ve been searching for your smell I couldn’t endure before. Such an easy thing then, however, it’s impossible now.
Sometimes, the image of that day you left us strikes me and always makes me cry. You breathed hard, while I could do nothing but watch you die.
Obviously, you wanted to spend more time staying wish us and you had tried. Ultimately, you still left us that night.
So early you went that I even hadn’t been ready to face this fact. On occasion, I recall our past in the room you slept in before.
“Maybe it’s right for you to go to heaven,” I thought, after months of your death. Under the pain of your old age and sickness, you death may be a release.
Countless memories are my treasure, and I’ll never forget. Hope you can know that I miss you so much.
To Me (in Another Universe) Leaving Me (Here)
韋瑋
We have walked through those same roads we had taken.And now, we must be apart.
Since you just made another choice.
Yet we know there’s not much difference Between each parallel universe.
Day passes. Time flies. We live.
Wish everything goes well there, And we will meet again someday In the dream we make.
To Someone Leaving My Life
秀宗
Do you know
what I really need
in my whole lifetime?
Maybe it is an easy word,
or maybe it is a sweet action.
But I think all I want
and all I need
for the rest
of my life
To Students Leaving a Teacher
懿昀
Oh, kids,when I first met you, I saw your face with shyness.
Oh, kids, three years later, I saw your smile with confidence.
I know,
you have already prepared and got ready
Run!
Run!
Make your dream come true!
Oh, kids,
Don’t forget what I’ve taught you:
Be kind, be nice,
and congratulations
for your graduation.
To a Daughter Leaving Home
鶴婷
Your face
is full of smiles.
You say goodbye
with your hands waving.
I do the same thing
with you.
Then,
you turn around and leave
to embrace the glorious future
that you haven’t explored.
I know
in front of you
is a new world waiting
for you.
But
if you feel tired,
behind you,
there’s always a place
that you can come back
To a Bird Leaving the Cage
錦華
When I saw you at first,
you were so small
and the feathers hadn’t grown yet, I held you in my palm
and touched you like treasure, gently, gently.
In the process you grew, I fed you milk, and
I played with you.
You always were cute, docile, and energetic,
making me reluctant
to have you stay in a cage. Day by day,
you had the beautiful feathers and you could fly finally.
I touched your little head, and you were close to me. The warm days coming
One day,
you lay in the cage,
quietly, quietly,
you didn’t flap your wings
because of my voice,
in the silence,
I knew
you were free.
You could totally leave the cage
stretching your wings,
flying in the sky,
wiping away the tears
on my cheeks.
I would be glad for you.
Thank you
for coming into my life.
I would miss you foever,
my lovely bird.
To the Smartphone Leaving Me.
品萱
My heart breaking,
life having no meaning,
when you were gone,
my world was ruined.
I miss the days we’ve been through together.
However,
you can accompany me no longer.
To a Potato Leaving the Couch
阿衝
I don’t want to do anything just lying on the couch
watching TV and eating chips. Now the doorbell is ringing,
but I can’t leave the couch because it’s so cozy.
There’s a woman shouting behind the door She’s my mom.
How I have to leave. Goodbye, my couch.
To My Grandfather Leaving Me
Every time your figure comes to my mind my tears turn me blind
I prayed to God once and once
Whether I have a chance to say goodbye. On the mountain
By the river In my heart
You’re everywhere I pray to God
for the very last time
If I can hold your hand once again there’s nowhere I want to go
To a Child Leaving Home
雅卉
When I let you
at fourteen head for Peking alone,
seeing you off
as you went away on two little feet,
tears in my eyes running
in worry when thinking of you going down the narrow road of the unfamiliar city
on your own, I kept afraid of
hearing the news of
your falling as I
couldn’t cheer you up by your side, while you grew older,
more mature and reliable with time,
clapping, clapping
for you life, people screaming with laughter,
your figure once seemed callow while now it becomes
a strong symbol saying everything will be fine.
Learning that you will take part in the competition,I'm afraid that a sensitive person like you will be hurt to see some negative comments.
Team members'backs have always been your most reassuring scenery,but you're now standing here alone.
－You will be the star－ －You will be the one－
The introduction sounded, and the lens appeared your dim figure, just like your image in my eyes all the time.
I always look at you on the stage through a layer of tears.
You sway with the music and habitually play the piano in your mind with one hand. －Singing, I close my eyes and sing－
－Yet I heard people sing along－ －How could it be?－
For you, the original intention of
creation is not to influence others, but to find an outlet for your emotions.
So, I can imagine that when you hear someone singing with you, you feel incredible.
－People’s gazes make my cheeks hot,I control my trembling hands, giving myself to the songs－
It has been fifteen years, and you are still nervous to retching before you go on the stage; It has been fifteen years, and you still tremble after you step on the stage;
It has been fifteen years, and people’s gazes still make your cheeks hot; It has been fifteen years, and your heart is still beating with music.
－I think I am worthy of being a singer－
It's you, willing to unfold the deepest part of your heart again and again, so the audiences are willing to "waste" time on you.
Similarly, because of our "wasting", you stand up as our singer.
So based on the sincerity of each other, what we waste is very worthwhile.
－The dream of finding the sun, boldly saying the thoughts of becoming the sun myself－ If the original you are a glowing planet,then the advanced version of you is chasing the sun,
and finally become the sun's light.
In 2018, the little prince finally left the planet. －You will be my one－
－You will be my star－
