The Meaning in the In Between
Writing this poetry
Is righting what is wrong with me
As how I get along
With dying trying to transcend
Trying to find the light
To write it right though being wrong
Along about the end
Of what has been quite a long night
A night that might go on
To be forgotten but not gone
If I write it right and
You read it now and understand
As how I go on too
Maybe why I do what I do
May be dementia
To be but in absentia
Just my madness maybe
Paranoid schizophrenia
Obsession maybe when
I do this again and again
Or else this may be just
My way of doing what I must
Trying to make sense of
Dying trying to live for love
Here where my lost mind went
Absentmindedly but present
When my reality
Begins to be in doubt about
It here where I find out
If I am of a mind to be
Though quite out of my mind
But if I write it right I find
Now this is how I see
That maybe this is what I meant
By being different
Between the lines the answer to
The question what to do
The meaning in the in between
Where you know what I mean
