i live in the space between words
between yes and no
between hello and goodbye
between i love you and i hate you
between forever and never again
between lost and found
between happy and sad
between reality and delusions that I've had
or the spot at the end of my street overarching with two trees
they curved perfectly on a mid summer nights dream
the kind where the alcohol overwhelms the caffeine
that night i sat between those two trees
overarching from left and right
i dreamed
it is safe there
in between
words that are to come
words that might make me bleed
or surprise me and heal everything
i don't like reality some days
i live between
yes and no
I love you, and now i don't
i want to and I won't
awaiting reality that is sickening
i live in the space between
