Temperance

Dear time I beg you , please let me go 
It hurts to walk yesterday’s  path .
Reliving pain when I don’t want to, 
Rocking my life over and over 
on chairs of stone the devil sat . 
There was weird time when to remember,
caused a reaction and brought me back 
to sweeter pastures , to warmer suns.
But to remain poses the danger 
of slowly drowning in shallow segments,
in doubtful seconds , where to be lied is liberating. 
Let me move forward lord of the ages, 
grant me a space between dimensions
where I can ride with any Planck . 
Reset my soul , with the  illusion 
of your continuum , 
each moment different , yet never changes .
