LIFE IS THE NAME I GO BY

Alina Lwagun

I’m unknown to the fact 
Which is inside me
I’m driven by the debt of the tears 
Flown by the loved ones 
Again, I’m unknown of the fact 
What surrounds me

I was going, and I’m still going with hope
Hope to pay off the debt 
Of unmeasurable tears
I’m bound to the unknown fact 
That pushes me 
To conquer the journey 
All I want is the courage to confront the reality 
I only desire strength and love 
To let me see the world outside those well-known, unknown facts 

Wisdom is the song I sing
Joy sings in my heart 
Song of sorrow I sing
Peace is what I seek
I’m a collection of black and white keys of the piano
I am a string of guitar that plays both at the beginning and the end

I’m an unknown known fact 
Life is the name I go by
And life is the name I go by

I’m also called a dream
I am ‘hope’ as well.   
I’m a dream, a dream to live, to see, to fulfill
I’m hope, the brightest smile, and a reason to live
I’m a life, a journey to begin and end  
I’m a traveler, whose roads are sometimes filled with the love of strangers 
I’m a poet who concludes the happy ending with an unknown beginning 

I’m a reality, a known and unknown fact about life.
