I was given a name
So I wrote it in sand
In the way I had learned
Till the tide comes
At 14, I decided I shall live forever
So I sewed it this time
To my sturdiest jeans
As they slowly unraveled
When I learned all the things
(So I thought I had done)
I forged it in steel and wore it as armor
Just to see it melt in fire
It melted in fire
Now a nameless nomad, I walk
And I write it in air that I breath
As I forget and remember
The sand and the tide
The needle and thread
The fire, the river
All paths I was led
