In-Between

Where do you spend your days?
In the shadows,
or in the light?

Is every moment gleaming
on display
for curious eyes?
Or do you prefer your privacy?
Alone with your thoughts
in dark serenity and silence?

I find myself mostly in the middle-ground,
tiptoeing the line
between dreams and wakefulness.
A greyscale existence,
where reality shifts around me
in mists and shades,
sometimes obscuring my own thoughts from me,
or burying my emotions
where no pick or shovel will reach.

I spend my days here,
wondering where the line lays
between real life
and fiction.
Living and daydreaming
in the in-between.
