I Wonder

I wonder what goes
Through your mind
When someone
Mentions my
Name to you.

My name

My name? I don't have one. I'm an inaudible whisper you're not even sure you heard. As I lay on my bed, sleepless, contemplating the questionable reality of an event that transcends your conceptual understanding. It's there, in the darkness, where you attempt to illuminate my being only to see a reflection of your own egocentric perception. If Altruism was present, surely, nevermore.

My Name

My name
Tristan Brown
That's who I am
But I'd like to think I'm more than that

My name
Hidden hero
Wearing his mask
But who really cares about all of that

My name
Costumed son
Behind his back
He'll never know I'm not just like that

My name
Hope's last chance
Behind her back
She'll never know that it's all just an act

My name
Wanted one
They want be back
Sadly for them I rarily come back

My name
Takes up space
Kicked in the back
Good for them I won't attack

My name
I don't know
I wish I did
I guess I'll pretend I'm all of that

A ten-word me

I am famed by celestial love,
Disdained by mortal affection...

I am often enquired about the true meaning of my name. Where I come from it's a synonym of the moon, I could not find more expressive emotions than these. It is partly based on the myths surrounding the moon goddess and her affairs, partly my own existence.

Marisa Lu Makil May 2015

My Name

My name
Is used by 2 people whom I love
Other than myself

I made this name.
When I was 13,
I began a novel.
The main character's name was Marisa Lu Makil.

She was everything I ever wanted to be
Wrapped up into one lost girl.
She had matured by the end of the book
And so have I.

I made my name
So can you.
Make your name
You can be whoever and whatever you want to be.

So live long
Laugh hard
And love ferociously.

Make your name
A name that others wish they could live up to,

And enjoy the story along the way.

Marisa is a pseudoname. It is used by a couple other people with my permission, but when I claim the name of my childhood hero, I feel like I have lived as she did: long, laughing hard, and loving ferociously.
