What's In A Name?

A name is a word
That's given to you
Not of your choosing
But it'll have to do

Your name is a mark
That sums up your whole
A flagstaff in good times
And as life takes its toll

You change and you grow
A person you mould
Your name sticks like mud
As you grow old

And though you don't choose
The name of your birth
It's with you until
You return to the earth.

You Are You And I Am Me

Inspiration to page, Thought after rage. Emotion before reason, Objectivity treason. Three words can make me cry, Express darkest fears. Verbose explosions can make me sigh, Bore me to tears.

Back To Normality

I'd love to know if normality actually exists. I mean, if life was constantly 'normal' every day how would we define ourselves. See here's what I think: Today I came across a problem I couldn't fix.

#household Mirror, mirror, on the wall, Who employed you for your call. Who's to say your eye knows best, And that your judgement's naught but jest.
