My Name

My name is not anything special. It was just a name my parents liked. I have never loved it, or hated it. My name has just been my name. Some say it means brave. Some say it means wealthy and great. To me though, it's just what I answer to. Some people take pride in their names, exclaiming that they are bound for greatness! Others consider there names wretched things. Things that they would just leave behind or beat with a stick if they could. While with mine, i am content. Whether people think it is captivating, or just plain awful, it is just who i am. Something that i wouldn't want to change. That, is something i do care about

  8. I really liked how honest you were in the poem. I can relate because I just answer to my name as well and don't think anything about it.
