In Between Poem by Mladenka Perroton

Let's love each other from a distance,
Let's make it work "in-between",
It is clear, I'll never bury my head into your shoulders,
As I fear your love, different than in-between.

Let's make it exist,
Dauntless in the night,
Fearful in the daily light,
Let's love each other with this small
Frightful love,
The one that you know too well,
The one that I cherish.

Let's never name it,
Cause never named
It does not exist.
Let's never make it clear,
So no trouble to live it,
No trouble, neither, of leaving it.

Let's make an agreement,
Let's never use the words of feelings,
Let's only speak our bodies,
Those who know differences
Between the truth and the lies,
Having no problems with ties.

Let's make it simple,
Let's not trouble our hearts.
Yet, somehow it feels wrong.
By doing this, we invent a secret language code,
Of annulation of each other's bliss.
