The very sound of you.

So that you know: It took me years to find the right name for You.
You are bound to 
the bone
the marrow
the sinews
of every
thing I have named
to stand out in this soup
called universe
a chain  of
incidents
parts
movements
and objects
visible and invisible
loved
or feared
or wished for
marking
all the
connections
I  made so far.

I gave you a name I loved to hear out loud.
We were all named for the same reason.
