Dear friends,

"Virtual and Actual"

"Licking a lollipop,

Playing with a yoyo of rainbow."

I tried to remember that day,

Nothing was played in my mind—

"Embracing a brown teddy bear,"

Beliving one day he can talk—

"Staring at the yellow pages of The Little Prince,"

Thinking one day I can go back to my planet.—

"My deafening laough with 'Helen',"

Telling me she died, 

What does "death" mean?—

"Finding our last cheers,

You, holding me tightly

Telling me about love."

What does "love" mean?—

Looking at the mirror,

Is it me looking at the mirror

Or is it the mirror looking at me?

Taking my last photo,

To immortalize the present.

Only the past is captured.

(Author's note: The "" are used to show where the photos of the album are explained. All the — are used to show the moment when a page is turned. "Helen" is the name of a character in Sharlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre).

P.S.: Please italicize The Little Prince.
