i am not happy
and yet,
i am not necessarily
unhappy
because there exists
a very definitive
medium
between the two
it is a place
where floating souls
go to take a break
from their constant searching
it is a place
where empty hearts sit,
amid the emotionlessness,
to recouperate
there is,
in fact,
nothing
in this medium
there are only
a handful of minds,
who have been brave enough to admit
that they do not belong
because no one sees
the gray area between
happy and unhappy,
it is a particularly nasty taboo
society condemns the reality
that is being lost
and afraid
and unsure
but i have found that medium,
i have solidified
my existence
in that gray area
