Name me
Give me a name.
Give me a title that I will only hear,
when it drifts from your soft lips.
Don't call me by the simple name I have now.
A name I never wanted,
nor asked for.
I long for the name
that makes you think of sweeter things.
Like sugar.
Like the sun.
I want the name that comes to mind
when I am held in your sight,
or in the back of your thoughts.
Would it be nicer?
Would it be longer or shorter?
Would my new name be simple,
or a mouthful?
Or maybe I don't want a new name at all.
Maybe I just want you to look into my eyes,
and claim me by the name I have now.
I want you to call me by the name you love most.
I pray it's my name.
