THE INBETWEEN

I exist in the "inbetween"
I'm not a girl,
but not yet a woman.
I love,
but not exactly the way
that has been percribed.
My heart aches
but my face smiles.
I am every shade of gray.
Can you see me here in the "inbetween"?
I don't think you can.

Because in the inbetween

I exist

But I'm unreachable.
