把这一句，留给此刻的你

I was gazing at a cup of cocoa on my night table. As I focused on the thick brown skin that had formed upon its surface like ice on a muddy pond something at the root of my tongue leapt like a little goat and my stomach turned over.

我盯着床头柜上的一杯可可。当我把注意力集中在那厚厚的褐色皮肤上时，它的表面已经形成了一个像泥泞池塘上的冰一样的东西，在我舌头的根部像一只小山羊一样跳了起来，我的胃翻了个底朝天。
