In-between
I'm not afraid of love,
nor hatred.
I'm afraid of the
in-between
of standing on the thin line between
love and hate
having no feelings, being
clean
of emotions, no memories
no spleen.
I'm not afraid of love,
unless
it loses its sheen.
I'm not afraid of hatred, unless
it loses its keen.
I'm afraid only of the
in-between scene.
