Submission Poem by Vikram Basu

Submission



Derailed we are from the path of salvation,

We are floating striaght towards our damnation.

Nothing can halt us, may be not even God!

Unless we get a hold & rescue ourselves.

Illusioned we all are by earthly heavens;

Suffering obsession, from start till the end.

Oh Lord! Free us from this unending greed.

Obstruct our way by Your holy feet -

So that we may stop & clear our sin.

Regain our hopes, save us from infatuation

Guide us to move back nearer redemption.

Blinded we were by baseless amour propre

Prevent our flow oh Lord, save us!

I, humbly pray You to hear our prayers.
