    I really couldn't think of anything to name this poem, its a new kind of concept for me so be gentle okay? Please, please comment as I'd really like suggestions are criticism.

    Here I am.
    Or.
    Am I here?
    Between the light and the dark.
    Dark things reflect no light, so of course.
    And yet I still reflect
    With no mirror to be placed upon
    The rays they stab
    Shadows are put down like mats
    So I walk, upon the carpet shapes and forms
    Right or left, which direction? I'm so torn
    The mats again, I've stepped on
    They feel soft and yet so hard
    Ah! an empathany shines brightly in
    The carpet floor is grass, it has always been
    I look up, there's a silver coin
    I try to grab but I reach none
    Texture stains the heels of my forefeet
    And so I fall, without much strength
    But soon I'll get back up again
    The coin's ray that stabs will lead me astray
    If not for mother calling for where I'm at
    in darkness outside she finds me
    A sigh escapes her lips, worry fades
    Here I am, and here I'll stay
    That is, until the very next day.
