Through the Eyes of Fire

by Aidan (age 13) | Partner Organization: New York Writer's Coalition

Prompt : Names have mystery and meaning. It’s easy to go through our days without thinking about our names, but maybe we should all take a moment to wonder: who am I? what’s in my name? For some people the answer is clear. This piece explores the meaning of a heavy name, an uncommon name, and the challenge it poses for the one who bears it.

Whoa yeah Looking for a name Through the eyes of fire Burning with the flame Whoa yeah Writings on the wall Through the eyes of fire The name tells it all And I am Who I am that’s what I am Living to be all that I am I am free to be one with me Write my name into destiny Whoa yeah One thing that is known Through the eyes of fire No name stands alone Whoa yeah Names that fall like rain Through the eyes of fire All names are the same And I am Who I am and that’s what I am Living to be all that I am I am free to be one with me Write my name into destiny Isn’t a name The highest word I say my name I am the word And I am Who I am that’s what I am Living to be all that I am I am free to be one with me Write my name into destiny
