YOU SUMMONED

THE GHOST OF YOUR DEADNAME 

I AM THE GHOST OF YOUR DEADNAME. YOU BURIED ME A WHILE AGO. WHIST BEING REMOVED FROM YOU I HAVE OFTEN BEEN SUMMONED TO REPRESENT YOU. TO REPRESENT THE OLD YOU. 

​

IN THE PAST OUR NAMES COULD CHANGE WITH OUR PERCEPTIONS OF OURSELVES. THEY WERNT CHOSEN TO REPRESENT US FOR OUR WHOLE LIVES. WE USED TO BE ABLE TO BE PROUD OF OUR PAST NAMES AND THE CHANGES THAT WE HAD MADE. WHAT WE GREW INTO.

​

YOU HAVE COME TO EXPECT THAT THE PAST DESERVES TO BE BURIED. WE ARE MADE TO THINK THAT WE NEED TO LEAVE THE PAST BEHIND. THAT IT NEEDS TO BE BURIED. TO BE PUT AWAY. THAT NOTHING GOOD IS THERE FOR YOU.

​

BUT THERE IS

​

WE HAVE THESE NAMES SUCH AS DEADNAME 

​

THAT IDEAD THAT SOMETHING DIED

FOR YOU TO GET HERE

​

BUT NOTHING DIED 

​

YOU BECAME COSER TO YOUR TRUE SELF

​

BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN MADE TO BURY PARTS OF OUR PAST

​

WHEN SOMETHING FORM THE PAST IS BROUGHT BACK

​

ITS USUALLY NOT ON OUR OWN TERMS 

​

I AM YOUR HAUNTED DEAD NAME 

​

I REPRESENT ALL THOSE THINGS YOURVE BURIED 

​

THAT YOUVE LEFT IN THE PAST

​

........

​

I NEVER BELONGED TO YOU 

​

I AM HAUNTING YOU BECAUSE I AM PART OF YOUR HISTORY 

​

I WANT YOU TO FEEL PROUD THAT YOU HAVE MOVED ON FROM ME

​

BECOME BIGGER THAN ME

​

I AM JUST A NAME

​

I AM NOT UNIQUE TO YOU

​

I HAVE LIVED BEFORE YOU AND WILL LIVE AFTER YOU

​

BUT I NEVER BELONGED TO YOU

​

AND NO NAME WILL BELONG TO YOU ETERNALLY 

​

WHEN THAT NAME HAS RUN ITS CAUSE WITH YOU

​

NO LONGER FITS YOU

​

THEN MOVE ON FROM IT

​

AND FEEL THE POWER FROM CHOOSING YOUR OWN NAME

​

I AM NOT YOUR DEADNAME 

​

I AM JUST A NAME 

​

AND I NEVER BELONGED TO YOU
