I'M Not Here

I am here, but I am elsewhere My mind, it wanders through space and time To where? I do not even know But I know, where ever it is, it is all mine I dream, to go many places In my mind, I’ve traversed this wonderful earth But yet, my body remains here In the land it has occupied since its birth I know, I will continue to go To where my body will never take me, I’ll be For now, though, I am here I don’t see you, though, you most certainly see me

Perhaps we all experience different levels of consciousness and are hardly even aware of it. This really hits home with me as I know there is so much more to what you write. Intriguing. Love, Shar

I see you there in the ether, for I am there, too. :) Michael, you wrote my being here, as I am always in that space, the space of 'no time' where one just 'IS', bodiless and everyhwere all at once - the perfect state of being. Well said, my dear! Love Kristin
