Sadness | Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

Nhà thờ đá, Ninh Bình, Việt Nam. by Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

Một bài thơ với một giá trị từ một đến 200 đô?
+++++++++

You are an unbearable darkness
I must bear
within me

You are a terrifying beauty
you make me bleed
and I ache

I crave for you

oh sweet one
how could I deny thy embrace
deny thee my resignation

I will stand
at attention
vigil
and ready

you are sadness
you are love
you have always been
a part of me.


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.
