The Man With No Name
Who are you? I would like to know more about you

The Man With No Name
I pass him every day on the way to work,
he smiles, says good morning,
have a lovely day.
Who is he, this beautiful man with no name?
No name, no past to hold,
just the weight of every step
etched in cracked dirt and cold shadows.
He’s no hero, no villain,
just the quiet storm before the world breaks,
a line cut sharp,
a silence that screams louder than words.
No promises. No regrets.
Only the hunger to move forward,
even when the ground burns beneath him.
The man with no name
doesn’t ask for mercy,
doesn’t beg for a place to rest.
He carries the ghosts
no one knows,
and in that heavy quiet,
he finds what no one else can,
freedom without chains,
and power in the lost.
He is not forgotten,
he’s the story left unwritten,
the breath between heartbeats,
the force no one sees coming,
but everyone feels.
One day he may want to know me more,
till then he will remain
The man with no name,
behind an exciting closed door.

A mysterious poem about a nameless man whose quiet strength leaves a lasting impression
Good job and I think we all 'know' of these types of people. They are all around us and who knows one or two just may be angels looking out.
Wow, Marie, this poem paints such a vivid picture of mystery and strength!
Brief, concise and meaningful
Interesting though 🙏
❤️❤️
Reminds me of the man who inspired my story "The Spy" , excellent words
Amazing
