Born

"You were born under Saturn", the astrologer says
"And that means you have strength to destroy,
So you can't surround people with lightness and joy
But you can endure with them their hardest of days".

"You were born under Morrighan", the enchantress says,
"Queen of Shadows, Fierce Mistress of Death,
All shall seek you through panic, when gasping for breath
To restore their right minds, and then hasten away."

"You were born unexpected", the mother says,
"So I can't tell you what your life means.
For whatever it's worth, you have half of my genes
And my failures reflect in your gaze."
