Space For Self.

How amazing when time unveils its face,
sets me in motion,
reshapes and changes so life will embrace
my emergence as a free soul.

I suddenly feel like striding up mountains
reaching summits and
shout my request so that Fate may count
me blessed in this Happyland.

Instead of digesting manna of loneliness
I shall dine on soul-bread
kneaded by infinity's fingers in golden
awareness I will never forget.

Heaven allows me to play destiny's hand
as it shows me new love
for in lighting faith's candle I understand
what time can no longer touch.

Transformed I will dance on a fresh alter,
imbibe desire's nectar
embrace the passion of fresh love-water
and taste bliss in pleasure's bed.

For a few precious moments I can escape
celled walls of apathy
and in unfettered Self-Space celebrate
belief in wished-for happiness.

When time stands still I pledge to leap
between unused seconds
and snatch Fantasy's chances to hear
as another dimension beckons.

Sometimes we feel that we have all the time in the world, others we find theres not enough hours in the day. Einstein said time was relative - true - it is also fickle, thats why I liked the final stanza very much with its references to leaping and snatching seconds where possible. We must be as fluid as Time itself if we are to make the best of it.
I liked the way this stirred the grey matter Fay. Thanks for sharing.
