Ask Me Again
Ask me again when I can heed
As doubting your repentance
brings thoughts on fire
From sustaining love
as a food sourced need
To contemplating forgiveness,
when all looks dire
Suppressing all longings,
to deaden the sound
of conflicting emotions
making my head spin around
Ask me again when I can heed
in hoping felicity to be intact
Trusting to go where you lead
True hearts need constancy
so love can react.
In strengthened resolve
your pleas I heed
Love's ardent urgings
winging their way
Remembering not commonplace
but love grown from seed
Your reiterating promises
never again to stray.
