The In between… Kills my heart… And spawns a slow death for my soul… The last day I see you… And the day before I am with you again… The In between…. I am lost in limbo… The moment after I put the phone down… And the time before I have to speak to you again… The last minute I hear your voice… Before I listen to your sweet hello… The In between… I cannot bear the silence… When you say goodnight and kiss me… And the early morning minutes before I wake to see your face… The seconds before you close your eyes to slumber… Before you stir to the promise of a new day… The In between… The dark of night haunts and scare me… As I leave your embrace, the last touch I have of your skin… And the anticipation of being close again… The steps that take an eternity but shall take me to you… Before we are in the same space, the same time… The In between… I wander aimlessly trying to find you… When you say you love me and miss me and say goodbye… And the excitement I feel to hear you utter such once more… The minutes that agonizingly drag into hours and days… Before I find you in the crowd amid the sea of faceless strangers… The In between… I feel isolated and alone… The In between… As I leave paradise, as I leave your world… And I enter my dreary life and live it… Before we reunite and hold hands again… The In between…. A cold cold hell…. I love you…. And miss you… Every minute of every hour of every day… The In between…. Of life and death….Birth sign: Aquarius
