Unwound and Unbound

The illusion of time has a grip on our souls
Ticking hands of the clock count the years to unfold
A form of measuring the days that have past
Always yearning for it to slow, or to go fast

Energy is wasted as we fear for an end,
Precious time we say, and play the games of pretend
A place of comfort to act like we are in control
of the source of madness that eats away at the soul

The gears forever turn and circle through the motions
a beautiful dance that only holds onto all emotions
Truly we are not in control of the time that lies ahead,
and while wishing deeply to change the past within our heads

As we wallow away in this so called time,
Our minds reflect upon the mountains that we all climb,
To realize that all living should be done within the moment,
not based on a clock, but the present because we own it.

Not to say that time is not an important thing,
For it has it's purpose, but it's better not to cling,
From this detachment, life is easier to come and to go,
By showing your love and compassion, and help to others grow.

The eternal fire that lives inside our spirit,
Is intertwined in the network of the universe, can you hear it?
It softly echoes in the textures of our lives,
Finding ways to prove that we coexist in fives,

In senses and numbers that stand out as incremental minutes,
The clock can tell the story of our existential existence,
Though this paradox shows that time itself is not the answer,
But evolved above the sensation of your every day romancer,

Simply put, our physical feelings are not enough,
to shape the frame of reference that often goes untouched,
An inter-connected pattern of neurological possibility
Awaits our realization that is far from average mystery

If only we can run faster than the hands of illusive fate,
Our bounty from the harvest will go for average to beyond great,
The total goal is to succeed your own obsessions,
and promote the growth of living without physical possessions

Only when the release of this materialistic view has been completed,
We will unify ourselves beyond the way we were treated,
An entity ever-lasting and forever working as one,
Unveil the propaganda and welcome to day one.
