The raven

THE RAVEN

In the cool air of the dark night
A lonely raven takes to flight
Soaring higher and higher, casting eerie shadows by the moonlight
Circling and circling, so aimlessly
Then suddenly plunges into a deep dive
Gathering speed with fury
Disappearing into the mysterious canyons below me
Glancing up into to the dark sky
I see a shooting star streaking by
I see the universe, looking back at me
The stars like million sets of eyes
Yet I feel alone, no one to share my feelings or love
My soul reaches for you thousands of miles from me
As I wonder will you ever be near me
My tears roll softly off my cheeks
Missing you so intensively, as I realize that will never be
In the cool air of the dark night
As I roam around so aimlessly, crying silently
Broken, without hope of receiving your love, and hugs
I realize life is not worth living without you by my side
As I step closer to the edge of the deep canyon
I glance once more at the sky above
Take a final step into the eternal void, falling silently
I realize the raven was me, in his flight to his destiny
The shooting star was my soul, in his final path lighting the dark sky in agony.
