Poem
This moment only
On this page
Your wildest imagination,
Your fondest memory,
Both mere thoughts
Arising in this moment.
One builds a future never to arrive,
One reconstructs a past no longer here.
Mental fabrications,
Both occurring only now.
Seeking freedom through escape,
While trying to leave
The only place you'll ever be,
A curious paradox.
The walls that seem to trap you
Are thoughts about elsewhere.
See them clearly,
Watch them dissolve.
This moment:
Not a cage to flee,
But the only reality
That ever is.
