Endless in-between

Caught up in this
endless in-between
of hearts and heads
fears and regrets
where each step forward
leads two steps back
and each step back
brings me two steps
adjacent to the reality
I'm supposed to be in.

I'm dancing cheek-to-cheek
with this dream of you and me
but I've forgotten the steps
and I'm not hearing the music;
It scares me to find that
I've been stepping on your toes
all this time.
