Horrorscope

In your eyes, see Galaxies
(And the Soul's vast constellations)
A need to fill self-prophecy,
To seek my own self-validation!
To Orion's Belt, by Pisces Fin,
I strive to change myself again...
Polaris guides to Leo's Pride-
But Scorpio hath pierced my skin!

Hi, Anne Lise; I do enjoy horoscopes and astrology. I'm a Gemini. I have had many good friends who are Leo's; I know you all are a loyal bunch. Thanks for the read and reply! :)

Thanks as always for the review, my friend! My best friend of 20 years and my ex-boyfriend are Scorpio's so that last line is about them ;)
