Liminality

A doorway surrounds me

I stand at the threshold

Between worlds

Between the known and the unknown

I balance on it

Like a tightrope

Swaying from side to side

Trying to decide

Which way I want to let myself fall

Each direction pulling me

Playing tug of war

Feeding on my fears

That no matter which path I choose

It will be the wrong one

Each waiting to transport me

To their own versions of Hell

Even if I wish to fly among the stars

I am in limbo

Trapped in ambiguity

I am nowhere and everywhere

I am in the space

Where time does not stop

And where it does not begin

I am liminality
