Love Poem: Names

Names

If only one shall know my name
     With pride to care that I have been
     A title that might share such fame
     And from my cause true passion seen
     
     A name that defines one life
     Worthy of fame's price to bear
     Lived for peace and free of strife
     That's just, in honor, not from fear

     I'd be content if called by God
     A name that's less than pride affords
     That leads to paths so seldom trod
     For fortune undescribed in words

     From true hearts let names be heard
     May lives with love define the words
