衣服脫線，縫了幾針，黑線穿過紡織布打出小結，掀開的部份不再鬆散了。
國中時，母親也會為我們做這樣的事情。
經常在放學時，那多半是夕陽西下之時。南方陽光與北部不一樣，那時，嘉南平原在我們保安那鄉下總是一望無際，田地裡，唯有少數農舍及雙併住家。
四五點後，白花花鑲著雲朵的天空，會慢慢地黯淡下來，像是抹了乳液多了一層覆蓋，然後，不知哪來的霞光把天映成鵝黃，刷過了這色澤，彩霞在天上綻放了開。
人們無論貧賤富貴走在街上都能被這樣的霞光覆蓋，暖暖的，溫柔的，每個夏日的午後，我們總能有這樣的風光。在那樣的餘霞之下，孩子從學校放學，工作的人也收拾起一天忙碌，農人也循著田徑返回，那是個充滿回家氣氛的時候。
每當這夕陽西下時，放學後，我便以最慢速度在學校圓周內踱步，散步的習慣大概就在那時候養成吧。年輕的心靈，哪裡懂得餘韻的滋味，卻已經以那樣的方式在行進人生。
偶爾，徐徐走著，在靠近住宅前，從馬路的那端望向家開的商店，我的心總有種奇妙的陌生感，一種淡淡的惆悵與彷彿不屬於那裡的陌生感，那的確是我生活了十幾年的方里呀！但我怎麼感覺不到親切呢？
彷彿一靠近，我就要面對鳩巢，所以我總是遠遠的看著人來人往，看他們大人們話家常，看他們周旋於日常生活的不滿與洋洋得意，明明那個送雞蛋的廠商已經等著點交，牛奶的叔叔已經補好貨，等人蓋章，明明小狗已經看到遠遠站在對端的我，可我好像無法再前進那一步就抵達的地方。
有時候，盯著幽暗的鋪內看，會見到母親做在藤椅上，取著我的學生裙，縫起掉落的裙擺，那一針一針，等比例的縫份，準確不差的穿過織布，一吋一吋，陽光穿過廊道，她的姿勢在地上形成一個值得被尊敬的位置，光分秒緩緩移位，她沒有動靜，只有針穿過空隙的摩擦聲響在這個世間迴盪。
她是這樣的活在這個世界上，除了門外的人情事故外，全心全意投入在每次為人的縫份中，修補著孩子的人生與長輩的缺憾，時間在她身上形成老去的弧度，夕陽西下，她為別人也為自己所下的決心而活著。
在這個世界上活著，有太多需要填補的事情，有時候是別人，有時是自己，有些成就看的清楚，有些推動卻隱藏其後，無法明確。
我們想成為怎樣的大人呢？
每每在那樣的夕陽西下，城市裡高樓中不容易採集的彩霞滿天裡，我徐徐與人，離開辦公室，穿越不同街道小徑，旁人呼吸與溫熱的體溫並肩而行，隨著時光的消逝與前進，這些當下身影慢慢也變成記憶的弧度，讓人永難忘懷。
Your name gives it away
You're my sun and my moon, the bright light of my every day
And I was your girl, still am your girl
Until the end of time
You're my sun and my moon, the bright light of my every day

Until the end of time

You taught me wrong from right
It's never black or white
But through the lies, truth is what you'll find
Didn't always see eye to eye
But still you sacrificed
You took the fall
To watch me fly
It's never black or white
But through the lies, truth is what you'll find
Didn't always see eye to eye
But still you sacrificed
You took the fall
To watch me fly
And I will write this song sing this song play this song for you
