My Lessons

Take shelter in my memories,
For times to come - so dire.
Forgive the fading light
As the stars above conspire.

Seek my maker in the darkness
Which exists in divine light.
To be a slave to reason
Is to behold his hold might.

Praise the essence of wisdom
And bless the heathen soul.
Learn from that which teaches not,
And find emptiness in all that's whole.

Embrace the inevitability,
Which patiently awaits us all.
Fight not the war threatening faith,
Fight the one which threatens us all.

By,
Nikhil Menon
