If Only You Knew

My Name

I don't know why, but I just love this from the bottom of my heart <3

My Name

She whispers my name in the wind.

Soft sounds carrying through the air like feathers of comfort

The letters wrap around me like a warm blanket waiting to be touched.

Yet it isn't shouted,

And we are miles apart—

Breathing it in and never letting it out,

I slowly fade away.

Songs of melodious chants hum their way to my heart,

Where the broken pieces are slowly mended.

I watch you slip away into the night,

My name lingering on your sweet lips.

And clarity becomes what I believe

For the bells of beauty that you let out,

The words of paired letters that form me,

You saying my name is what I need to keep living—

And it's all I need to breathe.
