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.
