--Between--

Half in this earth, half in the hereafter,
one foot out, the other in
I’m caught between two planes,
life and death,
connection and disconnect
The world that bores me,
and the other that doesn’t exist
The train that arrives,
and the one that leaves
for the final station,
on the journey, I’ve never been.
