in white
book i of the in the in-between trilogy

This is where it begins-
in the silence before the voice,
in the space between who you were
and who you're still becoming.

in white is a collection of blank verse-
untidy, unfiltered, and honest.
A gentle disturbance in the fabric of thought.
A gathering of moments-fragmented, unfinished, real.
Words left behind in the stillness.
Echoes that refused to fade.

This is a collection of moments
written and experienced over fourteen years-
some through clarity,
others through the strange distance
of a world that often felt unreal.
Not in order.
Not in narrative.
But as fragments
shaped by silence,
tension,
and reflection.

These are verses from liminal spaces:
between clarity and confusion,
presence and absence,
between feeling everything and nothing at all.

Some were written in light.
Others came from the edge of sleep,
when reality blurred.
But all of them were lived.
And now, they've been left here-for you.

in white is the first of three.
This is not a story.
It is a pause between two thoughts.
You are not asked to understand it-
only to drift along its edges,
and listen between its lines.

This is not just a book.
It is an experience-
meant to be absorbed, not explained.
A minute of quiet disturbance
in a loud and shouting world.

This is a beginning that offers no explanation.
A threshold of quiet change.
A quiet breath before the shift.

Welcome to the white.
