Her Name Is Heather

Some names you remember. Some you want to forget. Her name is her name. And no good ever came from it.

Her name is Heather.

Her name is common.

Her name is ...

a name I don’t care to say .

Her name is haunting

Her name is memory.

Her name is...

a lady who inhabits my past.

Her name is a warm sweater.

Her name is patch of gray.

Her name is ...

a field of wilting flowers.

Her name is on letters I wrote.

Her name is on letters I kept.

Her name is evoked...

every time I read those notes.

Her name is her name.

Her name is my failed relation.

Her name is ...

a name I wish to forget.
