Two Black Ravens
It's a rainy night
So cold and so wet
Under a streetlight
Two black ravens silhouette
What are they up to
Why are they there
As they stare at my window
In precision glare
Have they come for me
Has the reaper spoken
Is my life on this earth
No longer a token
The rain gets heavier
As their plumage deflects
They sit their patiently
Am i their select
As i sit by my window
I drift off to sleep
To a dark world i enter
Full of ravens, and bleak
I find myself
In a room with no view
Not even a door
So what did i come through
On the floor i sit
Surrounded by dark
I shout to the space
Stark
I shudder awake
And at the window i see
Two black ravens
Staring at me
In blind panic
I lash out at the glass
My hands go through
As my wrists cut in the smash
My blood drains from me
As my eyes start to close
In delirium drift
Were they ravens or crows
