every cutesy love letter, 每一封萌萌的情書

every sappy post-it. 每張寫滿思念的明信片

Stacked neatly in the back corner. 一張張整齊的擺放在墻角里

Some in envelopes, some out. 有些包在信封里，有些在信封外面

Over six inches high. 足足有六英尺高

Every card I fretted over, 每張卡片都曾讓我倉皇不安

every page of handwritten 3AM hopes and dreams. 每頁信都是手寫的，寫滿了凌晨3點(diǎn)的愿望和夢想
