LIMBO

between a rock and a hard place
between the sea and dry land
between waking and sleeping
between the eye and the hand
between doubt and decision
between pleasure and plain
between romance and reason
between the sun and the rain
caught in limbo

between god and the devil
between the dark and the light
between the shame and the glory
between the black and the white
between the child and the adult
between the rich and the poor
between the church and the shopping mall
between the less and the more
caught in limbo

between the garden and the gate

between the sinner and the saint

left in this confusing place
left in limbo

between the near and the distant
between the doubt and the faith
between the science and magic
between the real and the fake

between the sea and the lifeboat

between the calm and the storm

between the horizon and the sky
between the rose and the thorn
caught in limbo
