Scorpio oh scorpio

Take heed in that last gurgled gasp for air
as your lungs struggle to balloon
My words never had the right meaning
to those embedded with ignorance's bliss
Shallow thoughts couldn't dare twist
into anything less than icy commentary
on my life in which you thought you knew
No scuffed remarks ever dampened my mood nor frightened my spirit
It's a shame it's too late to realize
that incidentally drowning is not in the least
bit exciting nor beneficial to me
but to silence the lectures and all the rumors
To deafen the voice and laughter from stupidity doesn't seem so bad
Yet it is sad I cannot redeem my life points
from turning the table on you
so that the mirror could shame you
instead of me
Because the scorpion's sting
can be quite deadly
but not using my stinger
has left you baffled
Speechless...
Breathless...
to say the least!
