Raven's Lost Soul
Karen Croft Among the Dead
Every night she walks into darkness
The amethyst mist swoons her darkened figure
As she glides between the grave stones
the ravens cower over her in pleasure
Keeping watch over her husband
She is among the dead now
The life sucked out of her
To the grounds of the cemetery she remains
Forever trapped in her own dismay
Her once white wedding gown turned from the drowning of her tears
Raven, herself already dead inside
Her soul lost
Her heart stopped beating the night she shot her husband and watched his lifeless
body fall to the floor
She walks in gloom
The cemetery her safe haven
It reserves a place for her
For every where she glances her name is etched in stone
