Poem: Navigating the space between spaces

As I rise

I find myself

In the space between spaces

The void that bridges

Who I am with who I am becoming

An empty space

Pregnant with possibility

That asks of an old self to be shed

So a new self can be born

Dancing between the two worlds

Eager to know what is next

I am careful to keep my steps fluid

And not give in to the temptation

Of stumbling on to the floor

Of the worlds

I am being asked

To leave behind

For it is in the tenderness

Of nothing being sure

That everything is possible

And in this

Space between spaces

That I can allow

The magic of wonder

To have her way

With me.
