Somewhere …
between the here and there;
between a rock and a hard place
between midnight and four a.m.
I slip into limbo while you
balance the brink of extinction.
Tied inside this surreal reality
is a game where the winner takes all
or at least gets to walk away.
I navigate the sea of good intentions
bearing the burden of your pain…
and I lay awake at night wondering
if things might ever be
‘normal’ again
