In-Between

Stuck in a hopeless situation

She’s calling for help between dimensions

How she arrived there, I’m starting to see

As a vision starts opening to me

She’s in a forest, which is no surprise

For that’s typically where vortexes hide

Obviously, she’s not been there before

For if she had, she’d know what was in store

This uncertain place, called the in-between

Where many unsuspecting souls have seen

Can feel dark and desperate, lacking all hope

Void of the vibrance of life they had known

Since it’s me who hears her desperate pleas

I’m aware this assignment is for me

Realizing I have no other choice,

I allow my mind to follow her voice

I’m observing her, though she’s unaware

As my form has not manifested here

For what Spirit is conveying to me

One must surrender before they can see

Though my soul is yearning to rescue her,

I can see, with that, no growth can occur

The storms roll through, denial then anger

Finally, softening to surrender

At first, I’m just a voice in her mind’s ear

One she’s not certain she believes she hears

Persistence is how I stay in this game

As she believes, then believes she’s insane

Then, each time she believes, she believes more

Soon, there won’t be disbelief anymore

At which time the darkness will fade

Replaced by light in this in-between space

Eventually, the door will open

Where she can enter a new dimension

A place where she will finally be free

And be the goddess she’s destined to be
