lantern

Why do you glow

when no one

is around

From where is the call

for light

on this path

that is not yet

and perhaps will never be

a way

Are you lonely

or just alone

Are you waiting

or forgotten

a remain

or an invitation

Do you see

what you show

if no one arrives

nor departs

neither sought

nor found

Are you sad

while your glow

shines

not here

but there

Tell

what is your cause

and effect

is there even any need

for such so

Is it enough just to be

light

holding and being

this essence

of gods
