- My name is Mud
- That’s what she told me
- She treated me like dirt
- Something to trod upon
- My life had value only to myself
- I would have gladly traded it for love
- For just a moment of love
- I tried to trade my life for love
- To take the bad end of a dirty bargain
- It’s harder to die than I expected
- More difficult to let go of that final breath
- Something within me still longs to live
- Something sings
- Something loves
- I have no need anymore
- My life is full of simple pleasures
- A well cooked meal
- The slant of sunlight through the window
- The sound of my loved ones across a digital field
- And from the mud
- A single lotus blooms
- My name has flowered into beauty
- My name is Beauty
- And there is no mother to silence my song
