I'm a Virgo


I am the maiden of earth,
Always Innocent and pure.
I’ve been called an angel
With goodness in my heart,
And a sharp, intelligent mind.

But don’t be fooled by my shy appearance,
For behind my exterior lays much truth and wisdom.
On the outside I’m organized, honest, and real,
With an insecure side that I rarely reveal.
And when my friends give me a shout,
You bet I’ll be there without a doubt.

But sometimes I worry way too much,
I am always striving for perfection,
Looking for approval in every direction.
Do you love me like I love you?
Because I want to be cherished too!

Obviously there is more to this shy, passive woman than meets the eye,
For I am Virgo,
The Virgin,
The Maiden,
I am Awesome.
