Living in that ethereal moment of Now
Is the only way to break away
From the suffering we believe has us bound
Holding on to the past, with chains heavy and cold
There has to be something brighter to hold
Living in your world with your eyes mostly closed
That kind of darkness can be toxic to the core
Not a thing is written in stone
Not a thing binds us to what we think we know
All is relevant, indeed, for sure.
Yet nothing is absolute!
Shifting our perception to what we want to see
Why waste moments on useless rephrasings
Making life a never ending parody
Clutching on to only common beliefs
Masters of limitations we concede
This is not our only passage way, you see
Challenges come, challenges fade away
Creators of our own paths
Moment to moment, we choose
Do we allow ourselves that time to breathe?
And allow ourselves to set things free?Or do we muddle through
Feeling burdened, weighted, heavy without ease
Carrying luggage filled with ancient memories
I choose to soar
Granting my mind to travel beyond
Dropping the weight that would hold me down
Accepting of the fact, there is no control
And what is tangible is not mine to hold
The only certainty is the unknown
And to live in that ethereal moment of the Now
