This is Scorpio (rough draft)

A poem.

This is Scorpio

This is me

This is the depths that you don’t see

What I let out occasionally

When my heart breaks in two or three

It’s all me

It’s always been

You just didn’t look hard enough

You didn’t want to see

My passion, sharp tongue, or tenacity

It’s not that I was trying to hide

This cooled surface keeps the hell inside

It’s why I can’t trust

It’s why I don’t fuck

The chains break loose

If I get attached to you

I try to keep it cool

For your sake, & my sake too
