What's in a name?

When you live in society
You live with a name
My name is Aishwariya
Although I’m also called Ash, Aishu and Satya
What’s so important in a name
You may ask
And quote “A rose by any other name smells just as sweet”
To that I answer,
A name is your identity
Similarly, there are nameless relationships
These are dangerous as hell
Coz they play games with your mind
And leave you caught in a bind
Why live with this?
Seek clarity in life
Ask for what you want.
If you don’t get it, move on.
Lingering in confusion is weak
It is also the gateway to madness
Something no one needs.
