In Between Poem by Mpho Nkadimeng

The in between is for us
Pathways of solitude
Mass and frictions of a sad story
See the space between us
Hails presence of voids and the unsaid
The space redeems lies in our eyes that in time occurs
A veil of what could become of us if we lose ourselves
In the atmosphere of trust
The in between us is unstoppable force
Its the untouchable. Immovable nothing
That collides with us being something
This space is the time it takes for me to be everything
When nothing is everything in you
This space is you against the back of light
Its the darkness in your shadow rendering hope of your existence
The warmth of your hand without a touch of your skin
The space between us is our heart beats
Thrusting against distance in silence
Its the thought of your love
Towing courage in me to be better for you
Its the faith in you for my trust in you
This space between us is a series of thoughts
Stacked together played continuously
To validate your existence
Its a void perfecting the excellence we may become
The space
A speck of time and distance that emotions dare to override
A phase of solitude in a knowledge of gifts by chance
See this restraint of nothing between us
Its the preparation of faith in the essence of love
And in all the poems that say you are
None of them can say more about you
Than you as you are
Cause in this space between
You are just the right piece of a simple moment
In forever
