The Moon's Keeper Poem by Asma Khan

I build my own kingdom
with wonder and wisdom

You stay kind and loyal
there is no comparison to such a soil

I embraced you with your light and darkness
so don't play with my sharpness

I am standing on the verge of this time
leaving you behind might be a crime

There is no fantasy in this decision
I have to accept it for your provision

Don't blame me of deceiving you
I have always done whatever I could get thru

The memories are terrible to pass
I can still see you in a caged glass

I go blank to wonder how you feel
don't consider my wrong, but my appeal

I had no choice but to die
This is the ultimate rule to comply

Live after me and be merry
for there is no grief left to carry
