In between

I have a lot of in between people.

The people I don't consider to be friends

But they're not my enemies, either.

The people I don't care about enough

To be awkward around

But also can't really goof off with

Because I forgot what humor they find funny.

I have a lot of those.

There are people who will snap at me -

I don't know why.

I'm a friendly person and so

I will reach out

Playfully

But I guess people hate that for some reason.

There are people who love me -

My home away from home,

My besties -

And there are these in betweens.

Impossible in betweens.

A gap I don't know how to bridge

An unfinished friendship I don't know how to lock down

Mistrust but not mistrust mistrust either.

In between hate

And love.

In nothingness.

  • Sleigh ride

    Just hear those sleigh bells jingling, ring tingle tingling too

    F F F F F G F-D Bb C D C-A G F-

    imitating the human voice with instruments

    percussion back there repeatedly hitting the sleigh bells

  • Family

    I showed my grandmother my keyboard

    she took six years' of lessons when she was younger.

    Her fingers found the keys -

    she could still read -

    just enough

    just a little.

    I pulled out my flute-piano duet book

  • First kiss

    You cared;

    I tried to.

    You did;

    I thought I did.

    I wanted so badly

    to be a character in my books

    and to feel longing

    to feel needing

    to feel love and to

    be loved
