The Space Between Stars Is Not Empty

Times and lives may overlap
And circumstance pulls apart.
But the space between stars is not empty 
Nor the distance between our hearts.

A capsule of memories fizzes
And, like medicine, soothes the pain.
The space that lies between our souls is filled
Until we meet again.

Invisible forces are at work -
Like magnetism and rays.
The space between stars is not empty
Nor are the lonely days.

The time will come when we will hug.
We will again see eye to eye.
The tears of happiness will overflow
When those we cherish will never die.
