There Was A Name

A name haunted a restless

existence,

It gave breath

It gave torment

It gave life

The name became forsaken

Just like the now dead

carrier,

A name is salvation

Our therapist on dark days

The fire that enchants

cold hearts,

The sacrifice in a storm

The pain that drags

The lost forward

It is a memory

You hear it chanted

When it burns upon a

tongue,

The now deceased soul

Wails in joy

They hold knowledge

The knowledge of never

being forgotten,

In the future

There is a horizon

You will feel

The warmth of love

As a lost name is finally

restored,

There was a name

Never spoken

Now it whispers from my

lips,

Marcy

That was the echo killing

slowly,

Marcy

That was the name

The name never forsaken
