Dreaming
The woman I dream of is anxious—
she is desperate to meet someone, but has lost the address.
“Are you sure he wants to see you too?
Are you sure you are ready?”
She carries a heart as mottled as an old rag,
as if holding all her life’s savings.
“I am sure. Time is running out.
I want to be loved again—or abandoned.”
梦见
我梦见的这个女子是焦虑的,
她急于见某个人,却丢了地址。
“你确定,他也想见你?
你确定,你准备好了吗?”
她提着旧抹布一样斑驳的心,
仿佛提着一生的积蓄。
“我确定。时间不多了。
我想再次被爱,或被抛弃。”
