I lie not awake Yet unasleep In those moments Caught between I think I see But you see not The Life that could Have been. The moon eclipsed The flag half mast The wick not Yet aglow All the beauty At but half full Accepted as enough. It must be true That one accept The half as near The whole. For it does not help To seek the truth, It undoes The beauty known. Thus die the dreams untold.

To accept
I lie not awake Yet unasleep In those moments Caught between I think I see But you see not The Life that could Have been. The moon eclipsed The flag half mast The wick not Yet aglow All the beauty At but half full Accepted as enough. It must be true That one accept The half as near The whole. For it does not help To seek the truth, It undoes The beauty known. Thus die the dreams untold.
