my name sounds unfamiliar when it rolls off your lips,
the syllables of it sounding quite foreign.
i yearn for you to call me another name,
a name that would sound more familiar to me than my actual one.
and one day,
you do.
i knew i was right that day,
that name did sound more familiar to me.
for it made my heart warm,
and my stomach swarm with butterflies.
i hope you call me that name again.
