Rocco Parisella Poet Prose Poetry

MY OBSSESION

MY OBSSESION

A murder of crows
Filled the skies
We watched beneath the trees
Their song, inelegant and free
Filled our souls
And we died with every cry
My sureness
Of your presence
My obsession defined
Your lips soft as feathers
Gently fell upon mine
Beautifully black
Wet as the grass
That stained your cloak
Below the Moon, shined
Their song not so sweet
Filled our hearts deep
In the cowl of the leaves
And love was something
For other things, not I
So far beyond it's reach
Safe, I lie, your wings inside
