Candy
by Mian Mian

I quit trusting anything that anyone told me.

My life was skidding into darkness at high speed, and I couldn't stop it.

I didn't think that there was a man anywhere in the world who could love me.

I was 22 years old and dead on the vine.

I want to see a thousand lonely strangers dancing happily at my party.
