BETWEEN THE LINESA Poem by Lou RDo we sometimes say too little? Sometimes too much???Why can people never Say just what they mean Come right out and say it Without the words between Between the lines Where we sometimes read too much Between the lines Forever out of touch We misunderstand each other Destroy each other's dreams Not knowing when we need to How to read the words between Between the lines Where we leave so much unsaid Between the lines Where nothing's ever read Between the lines Where we feel so insecure Between the lines Where our future's never sure So we go on wandering Through life's drifting dreams Trying to find the meaning Lost in the words between Between the lines That divide the dark and the light Between the lines Where we can't tell day from night.
