A Name

Merry Christmas y'all and I hope you all have a nice holiday. This is another poem that I have been put off for month now and I finally got the time to finish it. I was hoping to post up some happy Christmas or holiday poetry but instead I got this. Anyway, I hope you all like it and enjoy the holiday.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night (wow that's long)

~Change

edit: p.s apparently I was trying to post this up right at 12:00 pm on the 25 , but I guess I have failed =(

A Name

Let me tag on this wall,
so that you'll know that I existed.
While watching the dry paint
slowly flakes off,
the wall bleeds paint of red and blue,
revealing a layer of black and white.

Showing us a picture of some stars
flickering at the tip of the universe,
trying to guides the souls in this
voiceless vacuum of space
and I wonder, how can I stop us
from disappearing along with it?

Maybe all I need is to tag
on the Washington Monument.
The cold marble
with body full of scars,
waiting, as it falls to pieces.
The rubble sink deep into the earth.

Pulling down the stars,
blowing out the starlight,
that's trying to give this world
his life again
and I wonder, how can I help
put the stars back into the night?

Maybe all I need is to tag
on this wall, so that
in time, the scars will heal,
the blood will dry up,
and a new layer will form.
So that you'll know that Change existed.
