——纪念李宜雪

作者:鲁慧文

你的名字,

叫宜雪。

可后来,

人们记住的,

不是雪,

而是寒冬。

你站出来的时候,

没有举着刀,

没有举着火。

你只是举起了

自己的伤口。

伤口不会说谎,

可总有人,

比伤口更害怕真相。

于是,

有人让你闭嘴,

有人说你疯了。

后来,

他们把一个不断呼喊的人,

送进沉默。

他们希望,

高墙能高过记忆;

铁门能重过良知;

时间能埋掉一个名字。

可他们不知道,

雪,

越是踩进泥里,

越能留下脚印。

我不知道,

你今天身在何处。

我只知道,

有一个名字,

曾经一次次出现在风里,

后来,

忽然消失了。

一个人的消失,

也许很安静;

可一个时代,

如果连追问都开始害怕,

那才是真正的寂静。

有人害怕你的声音,

不是因为它洪亮。

而是因为,

它是真的。

真的疼,

真的哭,

真的流过血,

真的相信过,

世上还有公道。

于是,

他们不是与你辩论,

不是回答你的问题,

而是希望,

世界忘记你的名字。

可是,

名字可以删去,

记忆不能。

声音可以压低,

回声不会。

一个人可以被带走,

可一个问题,

不会被带走。

它会留在人们心里,

留在每一次沉默之后,

留在每一次不敢直视的目光里。

李宜雪,

如果有一天,

你还能看见雪,

请你告诉它:

不要落得太轻。

因为这片土地,

还有很多人,

在等一场雪。

不是为了冬天,

而是为了证明——

这个世界,

还有洁白。

Snow Cannot Fall into the Night Forever

—In memory of Li Yixue

By Lu Huiwen

Your name,

Is Yixue—suitable for snow.

Yet later,

What people remembered

Was not the snow,

But the harsh winter.

When you stepped forward,

You held no knife,

You held no fire.

You merely held up

Your own wounds.

Wounds do not lie,

Yet there are always those

Who fear the truth even more than wounds.

And so,

Some ordered you to stay silent,

Some declared you insane.

Later,

They sent a person who kept crying out

Into total silence.

They hope

That high walls can rise higher than memory;

That iron gates can weigh heavier than conscience;

That time can bury a name.

But they do not know

That snow,

The more it is trampled into the mud,

The clearer the footprints it leaves behind.

I do not know

Where you are today.

I only know

That a name

Once appeared in the wind time and again,

And later,

Suddenly vanished.

The disappearance of a person

May be very quiet;

But an era,

If it even begins to fear questioning,

That is true silence.

Some fear your voice,

Not because it is loud,

But because

It is real.

Real pain,

Real tears,

Real shed blood,

Real belief, once held,

That justice still exists in this world.

And so,

They do not debate with you,

Nor answer your questions;

Instead, they hope

That the world forgets your name.

Yet,

A name can be deleted,

Memory cannot.

A voice can be muted,

An echo cannot.

A person can be taken away,

But a question

Cannot be taken away.

It will remain in people’s hearts,

Remain after every silence,

Remain in every gaze that dares not look directly.

Li Yixue,

If one day

You can still see snow,

Please tell it:

Do not fall too lightly.

Because on this land,

There are still many people

Waiting for a snowfall.

Not for the winter,

But to prove—

That in this world,

Purity still remains.
