Tragedy On Saturn - Sonnet

Betrayal my love, lift high the laterne Face Venus in retrograde traverses Translucent on corners remote curses Born black, myriads of stars find Saturn Accouterments of time form a pattern Empty space ends where voided souls cascade She lives on the outer planet decayed Contaminated world spins through that turn Our cold orbits cross paths, not each others Nor touch warm hands taken now for granted Stay safe with lies deprived of what is true World of beauty, frost covered, not lovers Skate ice bands above the outer planet Slice through the heart, the frigid night in two
