My Name
What does my name say about me?
Is it an expression of who I am?
This collection of sounds
Jumbled into something
Others consider meaningful
It means "young creature"
In the Gaelic language
That was the birthright
Of my ancestors
But to me it means "writer"
"Thinker"
"Weakling"
"Warrior"
"Tempter"
"Encourager"
"Healer"
My name is how I know myself
How I express
The very idea of my soul
And all the experiences that have
Shaped
Molded
Filled
My wanton human soul
It is how I say
"These are the results
Of all the many things I have learned
Done
Destroyed
Loved
And they make a greater product than
The sum of all the parts."
My silly name
Is how I express my humanity
My individuality
My commonality
My ignorance
My name is not meaningful
On it's own
But it is how I can know myself
And most importantly of all
It is mine
