what happens if i scream my name as loud as i can from the rooftops, i plaster it on every wall, i paint it onto the inside of everyone’s eyelids? will that be enough? will i be remembered? i have nothing to give- no pennies, no bundles of clothes, no tiny pieces of knowledge. once i go to sleep, i don’t ever wake up. once i wake up, i don’t go to sleep. my name is all i have, six words of complete and utter ******** six words that’ll make you taste the words shoved down my throat, feel the sweat from sprinting from day to day- my name. it’s all i have.
