Where art thou?



"Where art thou",
she asked and
i couldn't say here
neither could i point there
for i wasn't anywhere
yet, i was here and there...

i asked the same question
when i looked into the mirror
i got back a stare
of a man not knowing
why, when or where
just that the answer was rooted in the stare

now how do i say
i am living in a state 
suspended between fact and fiction
in the thick of action
yet tucked away from glare
all covered but bare...

after weaving words
in an organized, random chaos
i still cannot say where i am
but i want to be back
only if i could cut some slack
and be more real.

real, unreal, surreal
is what am vaccilating between
only if i stopped at one place
feet firmly on the ground - i could be sure
and tell you or maybe shout out, M'am
here i am :)
