Lady Gray
You are in between
A little move and you are unclean
Pitching water without killing the fire
Confusion and delusion, Retire.
You are in between
Like a dying rain on a bright sunshine
So sublime, you’re always crossing the line
A character a novel will never have
A life repeatedly judged, it doesn’t budge.
You are in between
A head-turning beauty, always seen.
A soul with pure intentions,
Reciprocated with vile pretensions
Somewhere in between
A shadow of a lady and its miniature
Wide eyed ignorant, begging for an answer
Unlock a door and let her in
Or tear her apart, rip her skin
The love she chose, the life she has given
Elements of sacrifice, the price she’s paying
Take her on either side
Divide.
Don’t be an in between.
Collide.
