Thursday Poem: All shall have Names

clip_image002

All shall have Names

Do you remember,
do you recall
I used to give names
to everything surrounding us
I used to think it mattered
that things should have names

But now all I know
is I can’t recall
the name of anything.
All the names are gone
blown away by those cold winds
of forgetfulness and time

That sweep away all that once mattered
blow away all we once cared about
leaving us here, looking around
for something in these barren lands
we can give a name to.
