CANDY SHOP. Shine J. Sun

      Dear audiences,

      I chose the sweetest parts from my journals, melted them, poured those into the frame, cooled them for a while, the candies are NOT STOLEN CANDIES. You’d figure out the meaning of it after savoring the poem named STOLEN CANDIES.

      Your creativity is waiting to bloom, I hope it will be recognized by the people who value it.

      love and peace,

      Shine

      p.s: I'm going to New York City in March 2020, stay there for two months, and have book talks on this book, CANDY SHOP!

      Are you in? then please let me know:)

      WARNING

      accidental overdose of candies (yeah, it could happen) is a leading cause of too much daydreaming. keep the candies out of reach of the people you hate. the effects of these candies may depend on how much you like daydreaming as well as other factors.

       sunshine flavored candies

      ​when you have these candies, you'll feel like you are in a wonderland. I recommend you to have these when you wanna find the door to a wonderland while you are taking a walk on a sunny day.

       storm flavored candies

      ​each storm flavored candy has a little piece of a sharp truth of life, like a photograph. it's strong enough to strike a chord. a storm flavored candy will sweep away the things that hurt you; like a storm clears the path.

       ​​snow flavored candies

      ​like snowflakes in wintertime, they are cold. snowflake-like candies will have you recollect your sad memories. you will feel you are in the middle of the snowstorm, so bundle up before you have these candies. once they melt entirely on your heart, you'll gain the courage to face the sad memories and those memories will then never hurt you.

       cloud flavored candies

      ​like clouds flow, the stories in candies will flow too, in your mind. each candy has a fantasy-like story and as it melts in your mouth then, the stories will pop up in your mind. the stories will appear in your dream that night, in vivid ways.

      struck my heart.

      they touched me

      so hard

      so i couldn't

      go back

      to the time bracket

      before he said them.

      i stayed still on the spot,

      chewing his sentences

      word by word.

      he waited for me to digest them all,

      craving my answer.

      I burped,

      and that meant bloody yes.
