Love Poem: Often

Often

So often you have fear of what I did
with thoughts way deep inside from days of youth.
But darling I must ask you to forgive
because the love I have’s the only truth.

So often you have fear that love gets killed.
You cannot trust this thing which goes away.
Come here my dear and let your heart be filled
with my Scorpio desire all array.

So often you are on a distant star.
Yet we connect on planetary planes.
To reach you would be wonderful by far,
to have your love through suns and snows and rains.

Often, I dream of you during the day,
and softly, I put all my hopes away.
