Life time waits none
to know how it feels
inside righteous times
turned benign.
Do I deserve this light
has time stole pain in,
capsuling us in plagued
feelings of remnants.
Threads unravel in mind
while strength falters,
we all deserve reward
at accomplished time.
The sky flaters the wake
to happy mornings,
given us to see we are love
and except it into ourselves.
Clocks ahead bring us
to new lights sparkling,
let it in and leave
self punishment behind.
Open is the mind
climb mountains upwards,
feel self good, pick at the pain
rocks crumbled under footsteps.
Only we ourselves can change
into metamorphosis of happy,
no mater what is past
we all will butterfly.

Beautiful phrasing, "capsuling us in plagued feelings of remnants," and "clocks ahead bring us to new lights sparkling." Interesting "feel self good, pick at the pain." It is hard to let the pain alone, and one always hopes to find some part of its cause removable.
Loved the concluding stanza, the power to choose "happy, no matter what is past." Powerful and hopeful "we all will butterfly."
Best of luck in the contest, and a Winklings welcome!
