This Light

“My fire flourishes to be light.
Light that is beyond senses.
Light that is eternal.

When the enlightened lit my lamp,
I showed my neighbours this light.
Even went to the end of the streets,
Just to share this light.

Ignorants ignored it,
And journeyed in night.
The clever embraced this irradiance,
Had their lamps alight.

But if I was clever,
I should’ve burned my house down.
