Tim(e) Traveler (New Poem)

 


Tim(e) Traveler
by Tim(e) Kavi

winding roads
lead to distant portals
that bend back
and forth

from future selves
to meandered
presently perceived
mistaken pasts

there are floundered
opportunities remiss
in the stranger's glance
that becomes destiny's kiss

stuck in a loop
I try but cannot change them
as my regrets seem
to be a walk 
across the abyss

the candles burn late
at night in the caves
that lead to uncertain
futures walked by sojourners

I have my caravans of hope
feeling the cave walls
with flashlights that become
lamps of meaning

that by myself 
I can no longer create
for there is only
the undisclosed Other

helping me 
to change my fate.
