Old labels filled your memory
Sharp voices marked your skin
A weary mind repeated
Those names you kept within
Breath rose with fresh intention
Mouth formed a different sound
A tender word replaced them
A title newly found
Light surged along your outline
Heat crowned your fragile shelf
A sacred fire awakened
Inside the name “myself ”
Guard this chosen language
Let blessing fill each syllable
Inner fire grows brighter
Through names that feel livable
