Nether World Neither World
I move between the dark and light
a visitor; a guest at best
Each holds a part, a piece of mind
that keep me from the rest
Forsaking dark,
the gloomy state
I want this, yet it has a hold
that brings a comfort, even cold
I feel I cannot pass that test
The light that warms
can also blind,
that comfort comes
with loss of sight
seems crueler than blessed
The nether world is neither then,
not of darkness, nor of light
it sits between those places where
there's cool comfort and yet, sight
