Poem6: The Lamp


Adore the world with the zenith of your love
Being a lamp they say you burn for a while
But they who say so forget the fact
The lamp burns only till the oil lasts
It gets extinguished once the oil exhausts
How can I be the lamp which no matter
will lead you through the darkness for a while
Than leave you stranded in darkness
Instead I would prefer to be a lamp in myself
And forever burn.
