My Identity

Without my name I am an unknown entity 

Wandering alone, accidentally 

For I did not want to be stuck on this island 

Now all I have is my name, brought to my parents from my descendants in Ireland

The first gift I have ever received 

Given to me nine months after I was conceived 

A name is all one really has in life 

It outlasts the greatest pleasures...cars, money, a housewife 

I don't need my favorite book or my mp3

All I need is my identity
