Capricorn: a Letter To Myself
Capricious little devil, aren't you?
A regular pistol star, burning in and burning out.
Please don't take it to heart dear, but you'll never find a love like this.
Really who could take your flighty heart?
Ironic.
Come now, don't take offense. You're a regular flare in the sky, beautiful but soon gone.
Open your eyes little one, you need an anchor to hold you down.
Raise yourself by your own two fists and hold someone steadfast,
Never let them let you go.
