Somewhere between here and there

Do you know your there?

You mean over there? No need to stare or is it in reality that there is a tear. Do you think that too much a jump? Or is it your imagination is just a dump? Oh come on don’t be such a frump or like the rest being just a grump.

But we were talking about over there or was it anywhere or maybe everywhere? But can we really narrow down somewhere? Yet here is here and there is there for that is undeniable. Unless there is there and here is here or it could just be there is here and here is there. Now we are talking everywhere and elsewhere, nowhere and over there. Next thing your gonna tell me is you see a bear. Unless you just see it cause they tell you to believe it.

It’s simple, just keep following, the mind is expanse and flowing, when we don’t stand there in a trance. For here and there are what we seek or was that just somewhere in between. Neither here nor there a place where we are who we seek and we are who we are just there. But that’s insane, for such places don’t exist, is what they say, those ne’er do wells. For they want you the way they want you and if you are not that way they want you, then you are not their way. Witch means you are wrong in your in between for you have to be their way. So if you are anyone else at play they get upset and say hey! All indignant they add how dare you be what I don’t want you to be. What do you think, that your free? Look tree I allow you to be there.

Neither here nor there just lost in the somewhere. But not the somewhere of dreams and imaginations but the one that leaves you lost and tossed in the turmoil of the storm. Easy to lead, easy to dare to do any nightmare. So tell me my friend are you here or there? Or have you gotten to the point where you just don’t care. That is where they want you, they want you there. Oh believe me you should fear their over there for it is no where near where your there is.

Pshaw you be aware, now your just trying to scare. Your just trying to be difficult, just do your part and comply to my there. Is what they say in silence and in their flare.

So be there in the somewhere that you seek and you care. Don’t let it be too much for you to bear and don’t get trapped in their there. Somewhere out there is the you that is true don’t let them make you blue . Never stop seeking never stop being in your somewhere. That place between here and there. Does it exist and is it fair only you can touch that air. Dream and plan and think, but make sure it’s your somewhere.

So do you get it now do you see the how or are you just standing waiting to be tipped over like a cow. Or maybe just maybe you are unaware of that somewhere between here and there. The place you dream the place you live the place everyone wants to be their there. They all want to control that there that is your there, the somewhere between here and there.

    A very important message, especially for distracted moments. There, where the ‘there’ meets the ‘here,’ my present becomes the past for them.

    The way you played with words and rhymes is truly inspiring. It created a feeling of creative inspiration, like a vine rapidly growing from the way you write. The photo you included with the piece was truly breathtaking. The line "'Cause they tell you to believe it" is excellent—I love that bit of hidden social commentary. This was such a clever way to write about what we all want to say without coming across too direct, yet keeping the meaning close to the core. The rhymes are so pure that they make the message feel undeniable and sound very nice to the ear. I got goosebumps all over while reading this. The phrase 'Tipped over like a cow' is a brilliant line. 🙌🏾👌🏾🏆🤩🥰

    atmospheric and emotionally resonant. It reads like a dreamstate woven with memory, grief, and introspection. The imagery of the lantern in the darkness, the echoes of voices, and the soft sensory details like wind, rain, and breath all work beautifully to evoke that liminal space “between here and there between past and present, life and death, light and shadow.
