语法:

• Like a last breathe you, would breathe

  ➔ 情态动词“would”表示假设/条件

  ➔ 这句使用了“would”来描述假设的最后一口气，暗示了在绝望情况下强烈的愿望或潜在的行动。它强调了这种联系的珍贵。

• You were like home to me

  ➔ 明喻（使用“like”进行比较）

  ➔ 这是一个明喻，将这个人比作“家”，暗示着舒适、安全和熟悉。

• I don't recognize the street

• I know it is always been there

  ➔ 现在完成时的错误用法。应该是“has”
