In you, I find a complexity of thought
A maze of wonderment and a crashing down
I could stay here forever, but I cannot
Expect to give way so many hours to pleasure
Or leisure to reason on the misfortune of truth
Our own touch, too nearly much for words
Too much a pure desire for more
So, I may be in this to be free from you…
Or is it to be your captive?

The thoughts of true freedom, that which is unconditional, rang through me in your words.  I smiled at "captive"...
as being more nearly mesmerized.  
Enjoyed your beautiful write.

You weigh the evils,
level the playing field,
enjoy the rapture,
and above all...
delight in the fact you have
choice, and free will.

I enjoyed the convolutions.  I vote with 'enjoy it while you've got it'.
