You Name It

Must we put a name to it? Must we give it meaning?

The Devil, Demons, The Angel of Death What you call IT is revealing—

Angst, grief, tension, stress So many names that I digress

For I do not believe The language is right

To describe endless terror “The Things” that cause fright

Primordial Fear Feels a lot more than Words It comes from a place before Comforting verse

No, you don’t need a name For the unending dread

We all share the same [feelings] That Fear’ — Being Dead —

With deeper meanings our Redemption calls

Forgive ourselves, forgive Our foes All these things that we Never controlled

Each thing that dies Gives room for birth

Our brave renewal is Not a curse

Though it may hurt To feel this loss

A new beginning turns Back the frost And gives way to spring Which brings Back Everything we Cherish
