Often intimidating Exterior hard It bears a leg for every lifetime scarred With age comes wisdom 430 million years old Capable of love but a claw is hard to hold Often mistaken An intuitive tune they sing Never double cross in fear of the sting Defensive creatures Sometimes stuck in their ways There's more to it than what the image portrays Poison The venom induced can rot you to your core Treat it right though and you'll be hooked, wanting more Dive into the depths filled with soul and compassion Has tried the infinite mind on for size, more than just for fashion The emotion runs deep in an abyss filled with wonder Come for the lightning, stay for the thunder You start to get a feel of the tremendous history When you gaze into the eyes filled with mystery Only through connection can everything eventually grow You can get rooted right here, with this Scorpio

The Scorpion
Often intimidating Exterior hard It bears a leg for every lifetime scarred With age comes wisdom 430 million years old Capable of love but a claw is hard to hold Often mistaken An intuitive tune they sing Never double cross in fear of the sting Defensive creatures Sometimes stuck in their ways There's more to it than what the image portrays Poison The venom induced can rot you to your core Treat it right though and you'll be hooked, wanting more Dive into the depths filled with soul and compassion Has tried the infinite mind on for size, more than just for fashion The emotion runs deep in an abyss filled with wonder Come for the lightning, stay for the thunder You start to get a feel of the tremendous history When you gaze into the eyes filled with mystery Only through connection can everything eventually grow You can get rooted right here, with this Scorpio
