Những cơn cảm hứng giữa đêm
buộc tôi phải nghĩ đến anh

anh cướp hết những ước mơ của tôi
những khát vọng của một người đàn bà
biết say

ôi câm
quá lâu nay

The moments of inspiration late at night
sir, forced me to think of you

you robbed me of my dreams
the ambitions of a woman who knows how to drink
gosh

shut-up
way too long

Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm, the blogger, poet, and translator, was born in 1971 in Phu Nhuan, Saigon, Vietnam. The pharmacist currently lives and works in Western Sydney, Australia.

This was is a very sweet and heart-warming poem detailing the enamouring effects of an admired individual, who, tantalizes a woman that is probably hoping a few sips of wine can help her control the emotions hahaha
