My Name by Maria Shriver
My Name
Which one are you
What’s your name little girl
The sound of those questions recede as I grow not to care
The sun knows my name
The wind knows my name
The trees know who I am
The horse that loved me never asked which one I was
She didn’t care
She knew love didn’t come in a name or a bottle
Today the wind blows through my mane just like it did hers
The ocean envelops my body
The grass bends under my feet
Who embraces your being
Who gravitates to your energy
Who is blinded by your light
It’s not about I am
Or which one are you
When you discard the letters of your name
Do you know who you are?
