in-between

thoughts of you keep me awake
and that i might dream of you lures me to sleep 
in-between, half awake, half asleep, i lie restless

................

days pass by
nights pass by
in-between them, life passes by

...............

in-between pages
still lie a dry flower.
a dead memory, peaceful in its sleep

...............

like sand slipping away in-between fingers
life slipped by
now all of me lies in a heap of sand by my feet

............

in-between

despair, pangs, morbid melancholies, blues

hope keeps fluttering like fireflies
