This moment only
The future you reach for and the past you ache toward share one address, and you are standing in it.
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.
