Stuck

In Between

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished 10 months ago Updated 10 months ago 1 min read

I've missed the way you'd look at me

I've forgotten how it feels

I struggle with my identity

I've lost a sense for what is real

No one hangs the sad pictures

They never seem to make the cut

Love and pain the scripture

Looking twice, with both eyes shut

When words don't answer questions

And truth only masks the lies

We wait, open for suggestions

Clinging to the ties that bind

Intentions change perspective

Perspective grants interpretation

Depending on objectives

And its obvious revelations

Revealing who we are

And just who we used to be

You can't expect to get too far

When you're stuck living in between
