Pages

There is a prophecy,
Written in the tongue of man.
With pages and pages,
Of hopes and despair.
Not written on these pages,
Is a single name,
For names don't label the mind,
Or the man's words.
There may be,
Pages and pages,
Of names,
And labels.
But does one of these,
Names and labels,
Have true meaning,
Or is it just the tongue of man.
Look past the tongues of life,
To the pages and pages,
Of prophecy,
With no meaning other than,
That prophecy with no name,
Could be you.
