The Crow



My mind is clear of the thought....of her....
The crows came....
A black shell within my eyes could drain...
I could only whisper about her....
And O he laughed...
The sweet wonderful pity oozed from his visage....
Hidden drenched in lies....was...his advise...

While spotting me.. he looks to my flame.. to entice
He is not a friend.....
