A hero that has been punished

Who else could be
a better hero ?

You have
sacrificed a live part of your body
to save the innocent life
of your daughter.

You who could rejoice in suffering
at the very thought of your sacrifice
have been punished by snatching
what you cherished to keep the lamp burning.

You have ignited
the wrath of God
for disobeying his will

You have been maimed for life.
You have been condemned
for trying to distort the creation
by trying to correct an error of the infallible.

You are a hero to me
no other can equal

I am made
a mere morsel of a human
by your audacity
in challenging the maker
And you would have never thought
that the victim would be
an unblemished flower at the alter.
