The Solitary Raven

The sharp pitch of raven’s cry 

Penetrates my heart.

The far-off cry ringing silently in my ears

Sounding in harsh painful slaps.

The mournful cry of lost love

Echoing through the peaks.

The silent lilt of dreadful agony

Drives tears into the heart.

Wrath’s cold note clutching at my fears

Finding depth within.

The sound of woe carried on the wind

Stilling every soul.
