The Name Stolen

Unconsciousness and enlightenment

Sometimes I feel

my name is stolen

by someone who calls it

on street.

No one would figure

that I’m different

when it disappears.

If it would shout and scream

underneath, or under the water…

I still won’t hear.

Oh, and it wouldn’t.

My dream attempts to lead

to the remembrance

but mostly it gets lost.

Sometimes I feel

my name is given

by someone who calls it

on street.

No one would figure

that I’m the same

when it appears.
