Scorpio

This mind never shuts down, It makes my ears ring. Sometimes I wear a frown. I overthink everything. I analyze every subtle move, In search of some motive, Like I have something to prove, Making me highly emotive. I wear my emotions on my sleeve, Yet I keep a whole world hidden. Darkness abides in this reprieve, Where thoughts thrive unbidden. Look into my eyes, see what I feel. I will say yes when I mean no. I'll hide under this dark veil. I hold grudges, never letting go. Betray me and know revenge, Calculating, bold, and cold. I burn bright enough to singe, And I'm not afraid to scold. I know you better than you do. My feelings make me magnetic, Stubborn, complex, yet soulful too, Sensual, wise, and dramatic. I will be loyal to the death, And despise the two faced. I'll love you to my last breath, Yet kill myself in selfish haste. I trust so few over the years. Nurture my love, watch it grow. Passionate and full of tears. I'm Powerful. I am Scorpio.

I've never heard a more rhythmic description of a Scorpio nor one that covers all the subtleties of life.

Nice horoscopic rhyme, not sure if that is a word or not but I used it anyway. :) Really nicely done, a great look into the mind of a Scorpio.

Thank you Chris! Hmmm....... Horiscopic. I like it. Words were meant to be played with. I think I'll have to borrow it. : )
