Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm | into a thousand teardrops (86)

into a thousand teardrops,
ashes in the wind blinded by the grains of time
squeezed in the hairline fractures in your rib cage
the silent ache throbs the beat of your heart

Old Quarter, Hanoi.

By Nguyễn Thị Phương Trâm

into a thousand teardrops, 

ashes in the wind blinded by the grains of time

squeezed in the hairline fractures in your rib cage

the silent ache throbs the beat of your heart
