In The Middle

Being in the middle,

Or a peacemaker;

A bridge

That doesn't fully connect-

You don't belong to either side, or worse,

You belong to both, with no hand

For yourself.

Still,

You can't belong because you are both.

You are also neither.

Trying to fit everything in the wrong body.

Like an emotional man or

   an assertive woman,

You are right,

But you are wrong for it.

Being in the water but of the land-

Of the water,

Stuck on land-

Even the dirt slips through your hands.
