    I’m living in the middle.

    Time has gently moved me away
    From the intensely jagged edges
    Experienced at the beginning.

    Time also sweetly moves me toward
    The realization of glory
    To be experienced at the end.

    But I’m living in the middle.
    Distant from the outer limits
    Yet stretched by the longing of both extremes.
    Not at the beginning.
    Not at the end.
    Just spinning
    In the in-between.

    Because time has harshly distanced me
    From the concentrated love and strength
    Experienced at the beginning.

    And time unkindly prevents me
    From the fulfillment of hope
    To be experienced at the end.

    I’m living in the middle.
    Distant from the outer limits
    Yet stretched by the longing of both extremes.
    Not at the beginning.
    Not at the end.
    Just spinning
    In the in-between.

    I need to know love
    In the middle.
    I need to feel strength
    In the middle
    I need to have hope
    In the middle…

    Not just at the beginning.
    Not just at the end.
    But as I’m spinning
    In the in-between.

    Walking through the middle of this journey of loss requires more strength and endurance than I ever imagined.  Please, God, come meet me in the middle and intervene in my in-between.
