Between me and you
Or him her or they
There is always a gap
That gets in the way.
A discord between
What we see think or do
And what people outside
Are convinced of as true.
Between who I am and
Who I want to be
Between my green and yours
Her pain, his empathy.
The words you read here
Are my shout ‘cross that space
And serve to remind
That we all run this race.
