The name was popular in Rome

Who was the true Saint?

By Salomé SaffiriPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

The name was popular in Rome,

The Romans- unattentive

One destined was for martyrdom

Another for offensive

One married people in the night

Another cured the blindness

One was benevolent to fight

Another fought with kindness

Along the lonely stretch of road

They're buried

One cured Roman folk

Another- married.

Writing - is my purpose. I feel elated when my thoughts assume shapes, and turn into Timberwolves, running through the snowbound planes of fresh paper, leaving the black ink of their paw prints behind.
