#264 Somewhere Between Here And There Poem by Jimmie Arrington

Somewhere between here and there,
Somewhere between blink and stare,
Somewhere between wise and fool,
Somewhere between exception and rule,
If you think you must know.
Somewhere between right and wrong,
Somewhere between dance and song,
Somewhere between start and end,
Somewhere between foe and friend,
Or should I let suspicions grow?

Somewhere between spring and fall,
Somewhere between guy and doll,
Somewhere between shadow and light,
Somewhere between blind and sight
If you want the truth.
Somewhere between love and hate,
Somewhere between chance and fate,
Somewhere between peace and war,
Somewhere between less and more,
Yes, even since my youth.

Somewhere between crazy and sane,
Somewhere between pleasure and pain,
Somewhere between dirty and clean,
Somewhere between concealed and seen,
You wonder where I’ve been abiding?
Somewhere between old and new,
Somewhere between false and true,
Somewhere between now and then,
Somewhere between once and again,
Yes, that’s where I’ve been hiding.

Somewhere between rebel and saint,
Somewhere between strong and faint,
Somewhere between worried and assured,
Somewhere between ignored and heard,
That’s just my World, you see?
Somewhere between loyal and betrayed,
Somewhere between brave and afraid,
Somewhere between sky and earth,
Somewhere between death and birth,
This is where I’ll always be.
