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.
