Who Taught Me

Strange thoughts wander inside,
Unable to figure out the past,
A clear big bang blast,
Or does in there something else reside,

I learned to walk,
Step by step till I was about to fall,
Listening to your call,
I learned slowly to talk,

Painted religions taught me fires,
Burning individuality alone,
A shabby harsh tone,
Taught me to suppress my desires,

A cute smile taught me to wink,
Raising my ever dying hope,
Amazingly my mind still wandering in globe,
Searching - “Who taught me to think”.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
