Maalavika Menon - My Name

I wrote my name in my hand
but the soap washed it away.

I wrote my name in the sky
but the clouds washed it away.

I wrote my name on the wall
but the rain washed it away.

I wrote my name in my heart
but the blood washed it away.

I wrote my name in a card
and gave it to My Mother
Because i know it is in safe hands
