Caught between worlds
delusions do I see
Some say delusions of grandeur
I say I see only me
Two worlds, ever arguing
never getting along
never knowing compromise
only Right and Wrong
Different places
Different times
Different faces
for different rhymes
Two realms in conflict
Neither trying to see
That they are the same place
both inside of me
Two lands across time and space
as different as day and night
the differences are so few
so few and so slight
Different places
Different times
Different faces
for different rhymes
A human yin and yang
is what I’ve come to be
full of pleasure and of pain
full of the calm of a storm’s sea
Conflicting emotions
Peaceful confrontations
Like deserts and oceans
As different as nations
Different nations
of the same globe, with the same soul
always the sensation
of never being whole
Different places
Different times
Different faces
for different rhymes
