In the middle of life
        although  halfway finite
     I'm still opening portals of time

Compromise

A wondrous balancing act
Everything falls into place
As two parties meet halfway
That is compromise

Forward

The stars are out now
and crickets sing to me of
hope in the darkness

Deep within the night,
I realize I am now
halfway to the dawn

astray in dark woods

night- stranger guides me halfway...

Humanity is vastly, rapidly approaching our own extinction.
At the rate we are going, I doubt we will reach halfway to the next millennium.

Caught

My sweet cat loves 2 percent milk
Which I put in Captain Crunch
Halfway through my meal, she took a sip
But I still finished up my brunch

Halfway There

Went for a walk,
Tripped on a rock.
Started to run.
Face to the sun.
Climbed a tree,
Feeling pretty free.
I could swear,
I'm halfway there!

What Lays Ahead

i headed out somewhere
away from everything I knew

and in my head i was already halfway there

The Half-Truth About Facebook

It’s our halfway house where we half-unwind,
Half-sociable, half-lazy,
And where half our friends we’re half-shocked to find
Half-interesting, half-crazy.

Close Encounters Halfway

So we crossed paths,
    we met :
    an angel rising,
    a devil coming down...
    way to the
    heaven...!?
    The truth is that 
    we redeem in love...

Further Away

we keep talking
but we get further away
let's just go back
start from yesterday
can't get any closer
if we don't meet halfway
can't we just go back
start from yesterday

Suspension Tableau

I’ll meet you halfway 
      set fire to both ends 
        Kiss you in stasis 
      as our world upends
       God it feels so good 
    when balance transcends

Halfway in the middle Comes the center While in the midst Lies the circle Circumference?

Halfway Through October

Oh, lovely month of my birth,
Showering so much delight!
Your colorful canvas on earth
Are trees with fiery leaves so bright,
Heavy rain of confetti keeps falling in my sight.

Free Fall

Snow covered black ice on the ground;
Wrong gentle steps put me sleigh and down;
Hardly with hands and legs stand up my body;
Halfway, well-forged heart doesn't give up easily.

Hate Me

one of those days when I see me as you do, 
that clueless blank simpleton so far removed, 
suicidal thoughts thinking short sharp and crude 
if this is halfway then I've done what I choose

Concerning Math and How To Say It

The British call it maths,
but the Americans ditch the s
causing much international scorn.
But for our sake, p'raps it'd be best
to keep subjects
only halfway grasped
in the singular form.

                                            a toothless monster

Halfway There

Told my girlfriend ‘I’m halfway there’
   She figured I was thirty-five…

After she’d done up and married me
   I told her I’ve one foot in the grave
                           ~ yet still alive
