We All Are Slaves In Time's Ship

we all are slaves in time's ship
held hostage to a promise of eternity
as the sails fill, oars are manned
we journey into life
facing contretemps in some moments
while lucky stars at times command the bow
we sail away
and the stratagem is to open the eyes
let the future reign
give yourself happiness 
in every possible moment
yesterday is a lesson
that we champion in the day
where hope comes with expectations
in every tomorrow
