The Realm.

The Realm

I close my eyes,
But the sun still shines;
It can't die in the blackness
Behind their lids,
As I can do

I open them wide,
But the moon is now mine;
It gives birth to the blackness
Of the evening sky,
As I fade into

The realm of the in-between.

Awake/Asleep.

Awake/Asleep

We wake in tempered patterns
Sun rounds the sky
And I open my blinds

Until the moon encroaches.

We fall in fitful scatters
Mind screams and cries
And I beg to know why

Until the day approaches.
