Somewhere

I’m lost

Somewhere between

Forever

And

Yesterday.

Between

What I am

And

Who I am supposed to be.

Stuck

Between

Wanting to run

And

Standing defiantly still.

Between

Crying for what I lost

And

Wanting to get it all back.

Lost within

The hope that still exists

And

The jaded part of me that rules sometimes.

The saint I’ve always said I was

And

The sinner I know I am.

I am

The lost woman crying for peace

And

The solitary reason it never happens.
