I guess he was right; I’m just a scorpion without wings, God created me this way, no wings, just a poisonous sting, The one I loved knew my true nature She knew I could sting her heart, and poisoned her soul, My lover knew me well, she knew my truth, She could see my poisonous soul, My ego bowed to her beauty, always ready to strike She knew my true nature, she saw the scorpion, She saw the venom in heart, she loved me still, I struck her heart multiple times, I poisoned her soul with my sting, I guess he was right; I’m just a scorpion without wings She knew me well; she saw the lethal sting, She saw her wounded heart, she loved me still She you loved the scorpion to the end, She fell in love, and now she’s dead, The scorpion cries, in agony, He wishes he wasn’t a venomous beast, The scorpion suffers; he misses his loved one, The one he killed, the one he stung, The one who loved him to the end .

About This Quote

In this quote, a man is describing a woman who he has recently lost. He describes her as a woman who was "always ready to strike," but she was also "poisonous." The reason he feels so attached to her is because she was not only able to understand him, but she was able to love him despite the fact that he had "poisonous" qualities. She knew his true nature, and his ego bowed to her beauty. While he had the power to hurt her, she remained loyal, even when he struck several times. Ultimately, she died because of him.
